Walla Walla, NSW singer-songwriter Danny Phegan came to the attention of Australian audiences during his appearance as a member of Team Keith on The Voice this year. It was probably just as well that Phegan did not make it through to the end because, as I discovered when we spoke recently, he has plenty of other activities, musical and otherwise, to pursue. Phegan certainly takes life by the horns and he has a range of experiences accordingly, which no doubt contributed to the storytelling depth on his 2017 album From Where I Stand. His new single ‘The Halfway Hotel’ is his first release since then and is inspired by the bar in his house. It was a real treat to hear not only the story behind this song but more besides.
