Danford siempre ha tenido un amor por la música, y en los últimos 20 años, él y sus compañeros de banda han llevado su talento por Nueva Inglaterra y el área de los tres estados tocando en innumerables festivales, clubes y eventos privados con entre dos y una banda de siete piezas.
Con inspiraciones musicales como Stevie Wonder y Carlos Santana, la lista de canciones de Danford abarca desde los estilos suaves de los ' 60 hasta el pop y el rock de hoy en día.
