<b>Dan Croll </b>made his US debut with the release of his EP, <b><i>From Nowhere</i></b>. Dan quickly won over fans and critics alike, and is excited to announce his
<b>headlining US tour</b> starting on <b>October 1<sup>st</sup>, 2013</b>. The tour will kick off in Chicago, and will make stops in Los Angeles, Seattle, and Washington DC, in addition to two New York shows for the
<b>CMJ Marathon</b>, and two weekends at the <b>Austin City Limits Music Festival</b>.

<p class="MsoNormal">Recently, he revealed a new music video for the song, <b>“In/Out,”
</b>which <b><i>Pigeons and Planes </i></b>said is “The perfect song. A swirl of bright sounds, trickling guitar work, and energetic vocals spin color into a musical kaleidoscope.”
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7VhSN26_WM"><b>PRESS HERE</b></a> to watch! The track was play listed by
<b>BBC Radio 1</b>, who will also have Dan in their studio for a <b>Live Lounge</b> on September 14<sup>th</sup>. Dan has also been busy this summer playing a slew of festivals including iTunes Festival, Reading & Leeds Festival, The Great Escape and Latitude.
