Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country

Prepare to embark on a musical journey where the high-lonesome sound of Nashville meets the expansive, psychedelic spirit of the West. Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country is bringing its signature blend of “organic rock band aesthetic” and roadhouse twang to the legendary stage of The Troubadour for a night that promises to be as soulful as it is electrifying.

The vibe is a unique “musical adventure”—a vibrant world where tie-dye meets plaid. Daniel Donato, a virtuoso who honed his craft busking on the streets of lower Broadway before mastering the stage, leads a powerhouse quartet that thrives on the fusion of traditional country and modern jam-band exploration. Expect an evening filled with “heavy guitar jams,” soaring improvisations, and infectious melodies that pull from a rich tapestry of influences—ranging from Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson to the Grateful Dead and Jimi Hendrix.

In the intimate, historic setting of The Troubadour, the connection between the band and the audience is palpable. With each member—Donato on electric guitar, Will “Mustang” McGee on bass, Nathan “Sugar Leg” Aronowitz on keys, and Will “Bronco” Clark on drums—contributing their own vocal range and instrumental brilliance, every set becomes a one-of-a-kind experience. Join us for a celebratory “cosmic” trip that honors the roots of Southern twang while boldly pushing into new, psychedelic dimensions.
