Dan Croll is a fabulous new solo artist coming from Liverpool, UK with enough facets for a whole band. He's the electro boy with links to the folkie scene, a multi-instrumentalist whose songwriting prowess has impressed everyone from former Beatles to legends in the world of fashion and design. Don't be fooled by the Buddy Holly specs - he's a one-time rugby fanatic whose career in the sport at the highest level was derailed by a broken leg - or by the sensitive acoustica: the 22-year-old is a former nightclub doorman who lives above a strip joint in Liverpool. You could say he's gone From Nowhere to, well, everywhere, in less than 12 months. "It's been mind-blowing," he says. "I had every bit of faith in the single doing well, but I never imagined getting daytime Radio 1 plays, some tremendous support from 6 Music, or breaking 100,000 SoundCloud streams in two weeks."
