Dan's Biography

Dan has worked with guitarist Jaek Pachniak for over 7 years, and often collaborates on songwriting and arranging much of WMO's music.  Faherty, a guitarist for 15 years, has always had an unquenchable thirst for great guitar tone, and loves the technical side of music making.  He also has quite an ear for improvisation and guitar soloing, which comes to the forefront occasionally in WMO's live shows.   "Recording the music we’ve written is definitely my favorite job in this band...sometimes its just magical” says Faherty.
