My name is Dan Forest, and I am from Somersworth N.H. I am 24 years old. I have been playing drums for 18 years, Keyboards for 17 years, Guitar for 14 years, and Bass (My favorite) for 10 years.

My current band is called Darkened. It is mostly Metal/Classical fused all together with some Jazz and Funk. We do mostly originals. I split vocals with both guitarists, and a keyboardist. I am currently also involved with a side project called "Dream Angels", which is a classical based group my keyboardist Katherine and I founded. It features a small choir section and ensemble led by Kat. We are currently working on Rewriting a 21 minute classical piece I wrote 4 years ago called "Autumn Dreamscapes". I hope to post some MP3's of the finished product soon.
