“TROUBLE”
Daring Greatly, originally from the sunlit eastern foothills of Canada's Rocky Mountains in Calgary, Alberta, skillfully merges rock and country into a sound that transcends borders. Founded by the Croome brothers, Patrick and Liam, along with percussionist Brayden Tario, the group’s journey began in their native Canada. As they evolved, their musical pursuits led them to the vibrant shores of San Diego, where they've continued to flourish creatively. Complemented by Jeff Starkey on electric guitar and Brendan Cutrer on bass, the band creates a rich tapestry of 3-part harmonies and intricate musical arrangements that resonate deeply with listeners.
Over the past decade, Daring Greatly has developed a unique sound that honors their Canadian origins while incorporating the diverse influences of American music. This blend has earned them critical acclaim, including a win for "Song of the Year" at the 2023 San Diego Music Awards with their heartfelt track "Never A Goodbye". In 2024, the band received further accolades, including nominations for "Song of the Year - Blame It on the Whiskey", "Artist of the Year", and "Best Rock Artist", highlighting their significant impact on the music industry.
Daring Greatly's reputation for compelling live performances is well-established, with over 1,000 shows across North America, sharing stages with icons like Zac Brown Band, Bon Jovi, and Young the Giant. Most recently, in 2024, they had the honor of opening for the Plain White T’s at the prestigious Rady Shell in San Diego, a milestone that underscores their prowess and popularity.
The band has released four full-length albums independently: "Cornerstones" (2016), "Works of Art" (2017), "Give Myself to the World" (2021), and "Gird Valley" (2022). Each album explores themes of courage, vulnerability, and freedom, embodying the band’s ethos and inviting listeners to a journey of self-discovery and audacious expression.
