Danny Sheridan
Musician, Musical Artist
Who is Danny Sheridan?
Danny Sheridan is an American musician, songwriter, producer, actor, and entertainment manager. In 2006 he also became a radio personality on 97.1 KLSX Free FM. He is credited as an influential electric bass player, and as the founder of the Eli Radish Band, pioneers of the so-called outlaw country music genre. This is a style that Sheridan's former band-mate/vocalist David Allan Coe continues to perform today, with a string of hit songs like “Would You Lay with Me ” and the anti-labor tune, “Take This Job And Shove It”. Still in his teens, Sheridan's Eli Radish toured with such notable acts as The Who and The Doors. The lyrics of Coe's "Longhaired Redneck" forever memorialized the concerts he performed with Sheridan while fronting the Eli Radish Band. In 2014 Sheridan began managing Coe and is producing his new CD.
Sheridan helped launch his then-girlfriend Playboy model Nina Blackwood’s TV career as MTV’s first video jockey, and in October 1983 US Magazine praised his “astute management” for "orchestrating her meteoric rise".
