Read below about current happenings and my CD, "More Than A Day's Work." Links to listen and buy are everywhere. New material is being worked on; news will come as it unfolds.
For the past four years I've had a cover band called Reality Bites. While the band itself is still intact, we've decided that some revamping needed to be done, and the main change was the band name itself. As of July 2010 we are now known as THE REVOLVERS. The current lineup (along with myself on vocals/keyboards/rhythm guitar) consists of: Alex Hahn--drums/backing vocals; Shayne Green--lead guitar/vocals and James Driscoll--bass.

After nearly 10 years on the web as a Finale (and sometimes Sibelius) copywork
service, Sonic Score shut down on December 1st, 2009, and
moved to this site. Despite the change, I remain
active with various clients.
For the past couple of years I've been filling in with a great Steely Dan tribute band by the name of Naked Lunch. Many months ago I became a member and this year we have alternating gigs at Lee Harvey's in Dallas and Tolbert's in Grapevine. Ealier in the summer we played at Watters Creek for some outdoor live music. Naked Lunch has a CD, "Dark Companions" for sale and are working on a new release featuring many of the studio musicians who played on Steely Dan albums. Check out their redesigned website.
"More Than A Day's Work" was released in September 2004. You can preview tracks here on this site, and purchase via CD Baby, Kool Kat Musik, Not Lame Records or directly on my My Space page. Here are a few reviews:
"More Than a Day's Work is a mini-album of original songs, stylistically somewhere between XTC, The Beach Boys and early Todd Rundgren, but with a more modern bent. Recorded with members of Chomsky, the album also includes a cover of “Ballet for a Rainy Day”, originally recorded for the King For a Day XTC MP3 tribute, but remixed for this album. These are catchy tunes!"--chalkhills.org
"Dane Petersen - More Than A Day's Work - Whoa! Anyone who's a fan of the last effort from Tears For Fears, Jellyfish or the Beach Boys should go here now. Although only a six song EP, it's pure pop heaven."--Kurt's Krap
"If Dane Petersen's 6 song EP is a hint of what is to come, we can't wait for a full length CD! A perfect example that less can be more, and that when it is all said and done, it is all about the song, and Dane Petersen is all about the song. If you miss out on this one, you are missing out on one of the nicest surprises of the year."--Popbang Radio
