about
Danny Widdicombe has been a steadfast feature of the Brisbane music scene for some years. At 19, while living in Melbourne, Danny was diagnosed with leukaemia. He had a bone marrow transplant in 2004 and in those long days in the isolation room after the transplant, he began writing what would become his album The Transplant Tapes. The album was a difficult one, emotionally, for Danny to release but he did in 2006. Danny has played guitar for Andrew Morris, Bernard Fanning and Karl Broadie, as well as touring the country as part of Tim Rogers’ Temperance Union. In 2008 he helped form the ARIA Award nominated group, The Wilson Pickers, and with fellow Wilson Picker, Andrew Morris, won the annual Grant McLennan Memorial Fellowship for 2010. He released his second solo album, Dominoes, in 2009 and has now released his third solo album, Find Someone, an album he began writing while traveling through Europe this year when he was unaware that cancer was once again spreading through his body.
