Daniel Childs Band

One of Tampa Bay’s best-sounding bands, the Daniel Childs Band packs a combination of superior talent, big sound, and rich musical heritage into each live performance.

Originally from Memphis, Tennessee, recording artist Daniel Childs has deep family roots in music and spent much of his childhood traveling with his father’s iconic band. Later, after honing his own sound, Daniel spent several years touring the breath of the United States in concert before moving to Florida in 2014. Over the course of his career, Childs has performed at famous venues such as the Bluebird Cafe (Nashville, TN), Puckett’s Grocery (Franklin, TN), Elvis Presley’s Graceland (Memphis, TN), Freedom Hall (Louisville, KY), Pioneer Square (Seattle, WA), the Seminole Hard Rock Cafe Hotel & Casino (Tampa, FL) and many others.

Today, Daniel Childs is known for writing heart-touching songs that often reflect the beauty of life on Florida’s pristine Gulf Coast. In fact, his song “Siesta Key” (from the debut album “Escape”) won 1st place in the legendary Will McLean New Florida Song Contest for 2023. Other popular Childs-penned originals are heard frequently on Tampa Bay FM radio and a variety of other outlets.

In early 2024, having spent nearly a decade playing live and gaining popularity across central Florida as an acoustic solo act, Childs saw the need to expand upon his sound by building a band. He assembled some of Tampa Bay’s finest musicians, and the Daniel Childs Band was born. The band’s first live show took place at the John’s Pass Seafood Festival in Madeira Beach, Florida where the group entertained a massive crowd, gaining a quick following on the Sun Coast. Soon afterward, the group began to secure booking-after-booking throughout the Tampa Bay area and beyond.

The Daniel Childs Band (or DCB) is known for delivering an entertaining show that features a number of Childs’ coast-inspired originals, as well as a thoughtful, unique selection of hit covers spanning the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and early 00’s. Combining elements of Country, R&B and Alternative Rock, the band seamlessly blends the powerhouse vocals, instrumental jams and on-stage chemistry that make the DCB a signature act that is as refreshing as it is eclectic.
