Biography

Musical eccentric and multi-instrumentalist Danny Cohen got his start circa 1961 with his punk band, Charleston Grotto. Years later, he was banned from performing the L.A. club circuit after his cult following purportedly smeared feces all over one venue's bathrooms, inspired by Cohen's chocolate pudding stage antics during a number called "Disco Diarrhea." By no means a public figure, there isn't much information available on him. Cohen performs on a few widely distributed releases of the late '60s/early '70s and on a few late-'90s releases on the N.Y.C. label Tzadik, leading two albums for their Lunatic Fringe series. He released his first record of non-archival material, Dannyland, on the Epitaph subsidiary Anti in 2004, followed by We're All Gunna Die in 2005 and Shades of Dorian Gray in 2007.
