***** WE'RE NOW ON iTUNES!!! *****

Mick Daniel and the Raynmen - a rootsy, hard-hitting quartet whose songs range from poignant to light-hearted in theme, with Mick's sense of humour - sometimes dark, sometimes silly - sneaking in where you most and least expect it.

On September 10, 2009, AR Select, an A&R company based in Los Angeles issued this review of their EP, "Alberta Beef":

"With shout outs to old school in-your-face no-nonsense bands like the Outlaws, Mick Daniel and the Raynmen throw down some terrific, hardcore bar band flavors on their splendid duo of ep's. "Lost in Love" is a scrumptious guitar smorgasbord of melody. The follow up track, "Cowpunk Boogie", does nothing to disappoint the direction of rock and roll momentum. Overall, from start to finish, a solid group of old school, sweaty, get'up'dance gems!"

Mick Daniel 101

Mick Daniel and the Raynmen - a rootsy, hard-hitting quartet that can fit easily into a rockabilly/cowpunk/alt country or even classic rock venue/category.

The songs range from poignant to light-hearted in theme, with Mick's sense of humour - sometimes dark, sometimes silly - sneaking in where you most and least expect it.

They're a little bit country ... a little bit rock and roll ... a lot rootsy ...

Based in Calgary, many of their songs have a western-Canadian flavour and references to local places and topics.

Mick is currently working on music for the movie "For Whom He Tolls" - for more info check out http://www.movieset.com/forwhomhetolls

He was also featured this past summer on the website and in the newsletter published by Taxi.com for successful placements by that A&R company!

On Friday, June 12, 2009 the band was showcased on 1060 Classic Country in Calgary, Canada.

The band's new EP, "Alberta Beef", was released in October, 2009 and can be purchased on iTunes, Amazon.com, Broadjam.com and a number of other music websites.
