"Award-winning singer, guitarist, songwriter and historian Dan McKinnon hails from the Canadian Maritimes, an area rich in the musical and cultural traditions of the North Atlantic. His warm baritone voice, superb guitar arrangements and original compositions have won this native Nova Scotian widespread praise. "

"Dan's most recent recording Fields of Dreams and Glory, recorded and produced at The Millstream in Toronto by Paul Mills has recently been nominated for two MIANS awards - Music Industry Association of Nova Scotia: Male Artist Recording of the Year and Folk/Roots Recording of the Year "

GO AND SEE HIM! — I personally guarantee the quality and defy anyone not to enjoy an evening listening to Dan McKinnon!" (Mudcat Cafe)

"McKinnon makes up good clear tunes with a hint of Stephen Foster and Tin Pan Alley in them and sings them with robust freshness." (Stephen Pederson, Halifax Chronicle Herald/Mail Star)

In the Spring 2006 edition of Sing Out! magazine, reviewer Rich Warren writes, "Although not his first CD, Fields of Dreams and Glory is my first encounter with this incredible artist. Hearing Dan McKinnon for the first time reminds me of the first time I heard Stan Rogers or James Keelaghan."
