ABOUT THE ARTIST

Singer-songwriter-actor Danny Farias’ heartfelt music style is uplifting and inspiring. Daniel has been in movies such as the “Gambler V: Playing For Keeps” and in short films such as “The Ravens Claw” and a TX DOT Documentary “The Best People and Places in Texas” and recently was invited to be in the “Palomino Fest Parade” which he performed “Uvald Strong”. Danny was inspired to write and record “Uvalde Strong” after a tragic and horrific incident happened at Robb Elementary School on May 24, 2022 in Uvalde, Texas. Danny felt that the Uvalde Community needed something to help then heal and wanted to help uplift the community in some way and that inspired him to write and record this song.

Danny also wrote “Corrido 53” in memory of the 53 immigrant lives that were lost tragically during a human smuggle event in San Antonio, Texas in June 27, 2022. He visited their makeshift grave this year and dedicated “Corrido 53” in their honor.
