Daniel Glendining is a British musician, songwriter and record producer. He is better known as the frontman for the 1990s band Headswim.

Biography

In early 1990s, Glendining was frontman of the band Blinder. In 1992, he left Blinder and formed the band Headswim[1] with his brother, the drummer Tom Glendining. Headswim released two albums by Sony Music, but commercially the band were underperforming and Sony made the decision to drop them. Subsequent to this the band managed only one single, "Dusty Road", released in the UK on an independent record label (Pet Sounds), before they split up in 2001.

In 2002, Dan and Tom formed another band, called BlackCar. The debut album was released in 2004, produced by Paul Stacey. In 2005, Natalie Imbruglia recorded BlackCar's "Come on Home" for her UK No. 1 album Counting Down The Days.[2]

Between 2005–2008, Daniel recorded songs for Blackcar's second album, Last Scene Rushes, released on 26 September 2010. After that, the band entered in a hiatus.

In 2014, Dan participated in the soundtrack of French television series Ainsi soient-ils.[3]
