Welcome

Welcome to the online home of Willoughby, OH musician Dan McCoy. Tool around a bit and check out where he'll be playing, what projects he's up to and other kind of mischief he may be into.

 

New Single Out, New Album Delayed 

I'll start with the good news. The new single, ‘84 Cutlass, is out now on all the streaming platforms. You can check it out by clicking on the photo below. The bad news is the release of the new album that single will appear on has been delayed due to a hardware issue at the studio. I’m waiting for the proper part(s) to arrive so I can finish up the mixing process. Once I have a definitive release date, I'll post it here. In the meantime, enjoy the new song!

 

New Single - Two String Thing 

I have a new single, called Two String Thing, out in the atmosphere. Check it out in the music page on this site or whatever digital platform you listen to music!

Big Show Added! 

I'm excited to announce the Beal's Pickles & Pints Rock n Roll show! The Pickle is excited to present an evening of food, spirits, high energy rock n roll and, of course, shenanigans. The price of admission ($40) includes appetizers, chartreuse boards (catered by the Pickle) as well as 3 of Beal's favorite local bands, Myth & Co., Dan McCoy & the Standing 8s and Tim Facemyer Band. Beer, wine & spirits will also be available. The setting is the historic Centrum Theater located next to the Grog Shop in Cleveland Heights, OH. Scan the QR code on the poster (below) to get tix. Seating will be limited & this one will probably sell out fast!

 

New Year, New Music 

Happy 2026! Due to issues with the studio I was using to mix, The Other Side of Tomorrow EP has been sidelined for the foreseeable future. Fear not, though, #dansfans! There is a new single out now on the site & available on Spotify, Apple Music, etc. next Friday, Jan. 9! You can check out Split the Difference by clicking on the image below. The new album is slated to be released in May. More info on that as it develops.

 

New EP Update 

Due to circumstances currently beyond my control, the new EP will not be out by the end of the year. The project has been temporarily shelved. The good news is two new singles are being worked on & will likely see the light of day in early 2026! 

New EP for 2025 Update 

The new album is currently being mixed. Looking at an October release date & searching for a venue for a release party. Once we get everything ironed out & the details nailed down, this space will be updated with all that information. 

 

Bicycle Fundraising Season! 

It's bicycle fundraiser time again! I'll be doing my two rides in September. Both fighting cancer. Feel free to donate to either campaign if you feel so inclined. ANY amount is GREATLY appreciated! It all goes to funding research & finding a cure. Scan the QR codes to help the fight! #VeloSano Great #Cycle Challenge USA #dansfans 

 

New Single - Good Night, My Love (Acoustic) 

I'm stoked to announce my new single, Good Night, My Love (Acoustic), will be available on all streaming platforms as of May 9, 2025! You can check it out now on this website by clicking the photo/link below.

New EP for 2025 

I'm in the mixing process of a new EP entitled The Other Side of Tomorrow. In another left turn in my musical journey, this one veers off into darker, perhaps more “modern rock” territory. If you're a fan of Gaslight Anthem, Lucero, Bruce Springsteen, the Hold Steady & some 90's punk-ish vibes, then you may just dig this one. There is no set date just yet but I'm hoping to have it ready by June. Check back or on my social media for updates!

 

New Single for St. Patrick's Day 

In a surprise move, I've added my version of Steve Earle's classic, Galway Girl, to my music section. The song is available here on the website now & will go live on all streaming platforms on Saturday, March 1. Click the photo below to check it out!
