Danny & the Champions of the World

Danny George Wilson has been touring the world and making critically acclaimed records for nearly 20 years now, the first Grand Drive release was on Loose Back in 1997. Since forming as ‘Danny & The Champions of the World’, the band have released four albums, the latest, ‘Stay True’, being their ‘finest set yet’ according to Mojo Magazine.

Danny & The Champions Of The World are and have always been a loose collection of great musicians, songwriters, stowaways and adventurers. Danny talks of Stay True as being inspired by the ‘great soul, country and rock n roll of Stax, Muscle Shoals, The Band, Dan Penn & Spooner Oldham, Dion DiMucci, Van Morrisson, Ronnie Lane meets Ronnie Spector’! It is an album steeped in good times, bad times, family, friends and powered by a great jukebox. It is without a doubt, the work of a champ.
