Daniel Gouk

Im a 22 year old singer songwriter from Northern Ireland. I grew up in Bangor until I was 8 or 9 then moved to a coastal village called Helen's Bay. Aged 17, I studied in scotland for two years followed by a year out of education, working. Then in 2009 I spend a year in Central Saint Martins, London doing a foundation in art and design. I have recently quit my BA graphic design course to put all my energy and passion into something I have always loved. My interest in music and writing has developed especially over the last year and has given me an opportunity to Co-Write with such brilliant people Including Amy Wadge (Ed Sheeran) Paul Herman (Dido) Alex LLoyd and Adam Coltman (Bdi + Sticky Records). I have played in such places as Ronnie Scott's and The Bedford in London which I am over the moon about! So I hope you have a listen to my stuff and enjoy what has been a productive year.

Recent Reviews:

'I love stumbling across artists that have a bright path ahead of them. At just 22 years old, Daniel Gouk has already worked with Amy Wadge (Ed Sheeran) & Paul Herman (Dido) on his new EP. Relatively new to the scene he is already being snapped up to play at some of London’s hottest live venues and has an incredibly relaxing yet addictive voice. Remember his name as this is the start of something pretty special.' - IAMMUSICTV

'Irishman Daniel Gouk is another extremely talented singer/songwriter, with elegant guitar riffs and an earnest, youthful voice. ‘Young Love’ sounded idyllic in the relaxed setting of The Regal Room, and Daniel had great stage presence in this intimate venue. He may not have the confidence of some performers, but he’s a gifted musician with a knack for writing unforgettable tracks and performing them flawlessly.' - Joe Nerini (FWD music)

'Helping us along the way is Northern Ireland’s Daniel Gouk, and a pretty little ditty in the form of The Girl In A White Dress. One part City & Colour, two parts Damien Rice, a teensy-weensy part of everyone’s-favourite-flame-haired-hero-of-the-mo Ed Sheeran and lyrically challenging enough to give those Mumford boys something to think about, we can’t wait to get our chillax on as soundtracked by this immensely moving piece of art' - KILLINGMOONLIMITED.COM

'A terrifically listenable vocalist does his thing, atop some really textured organ and guitar work that doesn't feel the need to bash you over the head to get its point across. Great.' - Pete Donaldson (Absolute Radio)
