Biography

The three members of Vago find common ground through varied influences. While Daniel's flavors come from songwriters like Adam Duritz and Ben Harper, Tom finds his roots in bands like King's X. Lee brings a laid back style and groove that pops, is a dynamic rock drummer, fan of bands from Galactic to The Who.

Vago has made their name throughout the midwest as a headliner, as well as a support act for national acts such as from Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers, Tommy Stinson (the Replacements), and Ingraham Hill.

Audiences routinely express surprise at the full sound from a three piece band. Listeners also have difficulty reigning the band into a specific sub genre. Stylings from Springsteen to Matchbox 20 to older influences like the Doors and Tom Petty are clearly present, but with a range and a unique energy that sets them apart.

Simply put, Vago is a rock band that is real and has succeeded in putting their real self out on stage to the delight of fans, as opposed to trying to fit into any specific formula.
