The "Press" page is now live! https://www.danielvolovets.com/press

Here's what new with the redesign: 1) an updated biography, 2) an improved discography page with an easier way to buy CDs, 3) a less cluttered booking page, 4) new page detailing current projects (CD, collaborations, concerts, etc), 5) photo slideshow that will be updated again shortly, and 6) a links page.

Look for another new page soon, as well as updates to the sub-pages under "Current Projects".

Hey all,

The website is undergoing a bit of a redesign.  The new theme -- background images and color scheme -- is very similar to that of my upcoming CD, Rainy Highway.  The redesign is a work in progress, so keep checking back for updates/new content.

Thanks for the continued support!
-Daniel
