Daniel Nahmod Bio
ABOUT SINGER-SONGWRITER DANIEL NAHMOD
Los Angeles-based Singer/Songwriter and Humanitarian DANIEL NAHMOD (www.DanielNahmod.com, pronounced ?Nay-mod?) has performed his profound, heart-opening original music for over 500,000 people in 40 U.S. states and Canada since beginning his music career in 1999... selling over 50,000 CDs to date and receiving literally thousands of standing ovations along the way.
Daniel's poetic and evocative message of peace, love and compassion across all nations, cultures and faiths has found overwhelming acceptance wherever he has performed. He has been featured on numerous cable and radio broadcasts in over 90 countries; at cultural festivals, interfaith and environmental fairs, workshops and conferences, youth rallies, 9/11 services; and as a keynote musical presenter at benefits for such organizations as Habitat For Humanity, Operation USA, Achievable and Anti-Defamation League. Daniel has also performed for various U.S. governors and mayors, and for congressmen in Washington, D.C.
Daniel has presented his spectacular music and message for nearly all of the world?s major faiths, including Christian, Catholic, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish, Bahai, Mormon and Unity audiences, and has worked with some of the most influential and brilliant speakers and leaders in the world --- including Jean Houston, Marianne Williamson (?A Return To Love?), Deepak Chopra (?Seven Spiritual Laws of Success?), Mark Victor Hansen (?Chicken Soup For The Soul?), Arun Gandhi (grandson of Mahatma Gandhi), Yolanda King (daughter of Martin Luther King Jr.), Rhonda Britten (of NBC?s ?Starting Over?), and Neale Donald Walsch (?Conversations With God?). Fifteen of his songs have been recorded by over 25 artists in just the past three years; one of those recordings, "I'll Remember For You", recently reached #56 on the CCM national charts, and his song ?You Could Be Fred? appeared on a top-selling CD from Blue Note artist Jackie Allen.
In response to Hurricane Katrina, Daniel visited the Houston Astrodome for two days, walking amongst the survivors talking, shaking hands and singing songs. Following late 2004?s humanitarian crisis in Asia, Daniel organized, produced and hosted two soul-stirring benefit concerts, raising over $15,000 for Operation USA, a Los Angeles-based relief agency working in Indonesia and Sri Lanka. And in 2000, he was nominated as National Hospital Volunteer Of The Year for his musical work at Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles.
Daniel?s new CD ?WATER? (August, 2006) features 11 beautiful, profound folk songs written under the powerful influence of a three-month sabbatical in the red rocks of southern Utah? evocative expressions of faith, serenity, and surrender. It?s a deep and thought-provoking chapter in the life and work of this brilliant musical artist.
