Dan Seals

(Redirected from England Dan)

Dan Wayland Seals (born February 8, 1950 in McCamey, Texas) is an American musician.

From a very music oriented family, his older brother Jim Seals sang with a 1950s musical group called "The Champs" who had a 1958 hit single with the song, "Tequilla" and who then teamed up with Dash Croft in the mid-1960's to perform as "Seals And Crofts ". Dan Seals' other brother is country musician Eddie Seals and he is a cousin of composers Troy and Chuck Seals and Brady Seals .

Taught by his father to play the upright bass, in high school, Dan Seals joined with piano-playing friend John Ford Coley to perform as "England Dan & John Ford Coley." The two would eventually have several hits performing singing pop rock harmonies. They disbanded in 1980 and since then Dan Seals has been performing as a solo artist.
