Dan Teka has been a well-known figure on the Kapiti Coast for the last decade through his popular weekend breakfast show on Beach FM. His easy-going and self-effacing personality, coupled with his natural talent as a singer, ensures constant work as an MC and all-round entertainer at a large number of functions and promotions. In response to constant demand, he was eventually persuaded to record an album of his most requested favourites, resulting in this debut album, “Play Me”.
Recorded and arranged by Award-winning Steve McDonald at Spinfield Studios, Play Me features Dan crooning his way through some of the best-loved ballads of all time. Apart from Neil Diamond's title track, the album includes the Nat King Cole hits When I Fall In Love, Unforgettable, A Blossom Fell and Autumn Leaves, Burt Bacharach's This Guy's In Love With You, Van Morrison's Have I Told You Lately plus Look What You've Done, This Masquerade, Smile, Still, You Are So Beautiful, When I Fall In Love and Blue Eyes.
Dan Teka's rich baritone voice and boy-next-door charm struck a nerve amongst “Good Morning” TV Show viewers recently and we have experienced constant demand for this CD ever since.
