After the overwhelming success of 'Roller Coaster', Danny Vera's musical career took off enormously. The song broke all records, topped all charts and has now been streamed almost 100 million times on Spotify. Twenty years of hard work and patiently working on the road finally paid off in platinum records and a sold-out Ziggo Dome. And all on his own terms, without making any concessions. But anyone who thinks that Danny Vera will now rest on his laurels is wrong. The music is in his blood, and that blood creeps where it can't go. American country, blues and rock 'n' roll is in and out.
His new album 'DNA' was created in a different way than usual for Vera. “Whereas it normally takes me two to three years to write twenty songs, I have now written them in two months,” he says. “Everything just came out spontaneously.” The vibe of the album is considerably different from that on his previous record. “I soon noticed that there was a different atmosphere in the songs compared to my previous album 'The New Now'. It was a bit more authentic, more rock 'n' roll & blues – and that's how the songs had to sound, as authentic as possible.” At a time when ChatGPT spews out complete lyrics for you within seconds and all imperfections can be ironed out in the studio, it was very refreshing for Danny Vera to record everything in one go. “That's how they used to do it and that's why it sounded so good, full of fun. The imperfections are part of it, the imperfections make it perfect.” Ultimately, sixteen songs ended up on the new album. 'DNA' has become an album on which Danny Vera returns to his birthplace, with songs that have their roots in the American roots music of yesteryear. Without click tracks, autotune or involvement of a writers camp. Solid songs ranging from classic Danny Vera ballads to fresh, uptempo rock 'n' roll. A record with rough edges, but above all with strong music.

Over Discords.nl - De Leukste Platenzaak van Nijmegen
Muziek ontdekken, beleven en verzamelen is onze passie. Daarom zijn we dit Discords avontuur begonnen. De plek voor het delen, ervaren en kopen van muziek. De plek om elkaars muzikale horizon te verbreden en te verleggen.
Wij zijn een platenzaak met een verrassend brede en avontuurlijke collectie van nieuwe en tweedehands lp’s, cd’s en singles. Van aanstormend talent tot gevestigde artiesten; van rammelrock tot electropop; van hiphop tot hairmetal; van new wave tot dancehall. Naast vinyl en cd’s verkopen wij ook platenspelers, merchandise, music gadgets en rock-art. Elke woensdag om 19.00 uur draaien we kikke muziek bij Discords Radio. Iedere maand organiseren wij spannende live optredens op de speelplaats in de winkel. Kortom, veel tofs voor muzikale omnivoren en audiofiele fijnproevers!
Wij zijn Renate, Roland en René en zoeken mede-avonturiers, die samen met ons nieuwe diensten en producten ontwikkelen; die mee-ontdekken en -ondernemen door 'te ruilen' en 'te verkopen' collecties in te brengen; die mee-denken en -doen bij het verrijken van het assortiment en de look-and-feel van de webshop en platenzaak. Kortom, sluit je aan als reisgenoot, meld je aan voor de nieuwsbrief en kom eens langs in de winkel aan de Lange Hezelstraat 32 in Nijmegen!
