Dany Horovitz is a Canadian singer-songwriter known for delighting audiences with his memorable melodies and beautiful storytelling through vivid lyrics.
Dany’s music has received radio play across Canada, the United States, Europe, and Australia. His single Free Tonight earned him Top 20 honours on Cashbox Radio. His follow-up EP, The Candle Is Worth The Game, was nominated by New Artist Spotlight for its 2023 EP of the Year Award.
Dany was born in Montreal and raised outside Toronto. His grandfather owned a record store and Dany’s spent his childhood listening to old records and dreaming of making music.
Dany has collaborated with an eclectic mix of some of Canada’s most esteemed musicians and technicians, including Calvin Hartwick (Daniel Caesar, Cadence Weapon), Dave Schiffman (Olivia Rodrigo, Red Hot Chili Peppers), Phil Demetro (Hawksley Workman, Our Lady Peace), Colanthony Humphrey (The OBGMs), Sean Royle (Shade), Mike Tampa (Silverstein), Izzy Ritchie (The Strumbellas), and Rudy-Ray Kwaku (Wu-Tang Clan).
Dany’s music is infused with modern takes on familiar sounds: melodic guitar and piano chords, popping bass licks, and toe-tapping percussion. His lyrics are stories of love, loss, and life, drawing inspiration from ancient poets, modern philosophers, and personal experiences. But don’t be mistaken, his music is neither academic nor pedantic: first and foremost, Dany writes songs to be enjoyed. And he hopes you do.
