A Journey Through Music

Dan Siegel's career is a testament to perseverance and artistic integrity. Navigating the ever-changing landscape of the music industry hasn't been easy. He often had to make practical choices to sustain himself and his family, all while staying true to his artistic vision. "Jazz is an art form that must be appreciated and rewarded," Siegel has noted. "Too often, creators are not properly compensated for their work."
