Daniel Rodriguez taught himself to play the guitar and the bass at a very young age. He began his musical path by listening to musicians at his church, and attempting to reproduce the finger patterns and sounds he heard. With constant exposure to his brothers’ heavy metal guitar music, Mr. Rodriguez developed his natural musical ability and became an accomplished guitarist. He earned a Bachelor and a Masters of Music in Classical Guitar Performance at Southern Methodist University while studying with Robert Guthrie. Since graduating, Daniel has been teaching and performing in the Dallas area. He plays for many weddings, philanthropic events as well as rock concerts in Deep Ellum. He is currently composing music for his first solo rock CD as well as a solo classical guitar CD, which will be released soon. Mr. Rodriguez performs at Hillcrest Church in the worship band. Mr. Rodriguez enjoys volunteering in his community, weightlifting, watching movies, and visiting with his family.
