The record

Details

Originally formed in Calgary, Alberta and now based in Southern California, Daring Greatly is a Canadian-American five-piece rock n’ roll band rooted in the songwriting and vocal traditions of the ’60s and ’70s, carried forward with a powerful modern sound. Founding members Patrick Croome, Liam Croome and Brayden Tario are joined by American members Jeff Starkey and Brendan Cutrer in the band’s current lineup. Much of their music begins with an acoustic guitar and a melody before expanding into driving rhythms, piano and organ, commanding electric guitar, and the signature “blood harmony” of brothers Patrick and Liam, joined by Brayden on vocals. Over more than a decade on the road, the live show has evolved right alongside the music. The vocals remain at its heart, but this is also a band that likes to stretch out and jam . Songs can open into extended guitar solos, instrumental passages and spontaneous moments that change from night to night. Think the vocal richness and songwriting of the Eagles , the exploratory musicianship of the Allman Brothers Band , and the weight and dynamics of Led Zeppelin , filtered through the atmosphere and scale of modern rock. With 1,000+ performances behind them, Daring Greatly has independently released five albums, earned multiple San Diego Music Award wins and nominations, and shared stages with Bon Jovi, The Doobie Brothers, Midland, Young the Giant, Lainey Wilson and more. Their online audience has also grown considerably, with select videos reaching millions of viewers, while 2026 brought their largest tour yet, a 35-date run across the U.S. and Canada . Still fiercely independent, Daring Greatly continues to write, record, release and tour on its own terms, staying true to the philosophy behind its name: show up, take the chance, and dare greatly. With Special Guests Lonesome Roses The Lonesome Roses (formerly known as Shhhhh) is a Southern California-based Americana duo made up of Rheanna Downey and Molly Jenson, both with 20 years of solo artist experience behind them. These two women write heartfelt songs in the style of old country and new folk with a twist of 90’s female singer-songwriter. Thanks to our Generous Sponsors
