"...After about an hour and a number of vocalists singing over CD music and taking themselves way too seriously, Danny Chait came as a surprisingly relief. Onstage, he humbly assembled equipment for his guitar—a little awkward, palpably nervous. He strummed a few chords and gave a sardonic “check,” drawing laughs from the crowd and priming them for his quirky, creative music. “I’m a hypochondriac. You don’t know me so you don’t know that,” were his opening lines. From there the song gets better and better, as he takes you on a hilarious journey through his psyche, climaxing with rapid-fire guitar as the background for his vocals: “Let me rewind every year, every month, every day, every hour, every fucking minute of my life.”
“I don’t like wasted notes,” Danny said of his music. As a result of this meticulous attention to his music, you may not hear from this unassuming 19 year old NYU student for a while, but he’s got the talent and the creativity to fill the shoes that Beck left vacant when he stopped being fun and started being depressing."
