Dan Hess

Originally from Idaho, Dan Hess started like many musicians, in a high school band as the drummer and lead vocalist, but with a slight difference, Sandy and The Sultans actually played many pro-gigs. After graduation, Dan moved to Chicago where he met up with his musician brother, who had just returned from the army and began what would be a long and successful journey making a full time living with their band, The Weeds. During this time, Dan found his multi-instrumentalist roots and moved from drums to bass guitar and landing in front of the band singing lead vocals and playing lead guitar. The Weeds performed regularly playing the top clubs in the Chicago area featuring the styles of Blues, R&B, Funk and Rock, and opening for many well known national acts.
In time, his home state called to him and Dan found himself back in Idaho, working steadily and again making his full time living as a working musician. After spending a few years on the club circuit, Dan took a wide detour, finished a law degree and worked in law enforcement for many years.
When his law enforcement career was coming to a close, he found himself in Oregon to be near other family members and started the Undercover Band. Not one to simply write original songs, sing, switch off playing drums, bass, and lead guitar, he also handled all of the management and bookings for the band.
