Prescott is an important place to Danny. He moved to Prescott in his early twenties. It didn’t take long for Danny to jump into the rodeo scene and start winning buckles with his best friend, TC Buntin. His other best friend, Bryce Heffner, introduced him to ranch life and working cattle. Danny says, “Punching cows was one of the best times of my life. The phone doesn’t ring, there isn’t anyone around, it’s freedom.”
One day while processing steers at a ranch in Selig- man, AZ, Danny injured his leg. He said that it was a little painful, but at the time he thought it was nothing serious. 3 days later when he woke up from a coma in a level one trauma center in Flagstaff, he was told that he had been infected with necrotising fasciitis, and his left leg had been amputated in order to save his life. The bacteria “was spreading up his leg over an inch an hour, if they didn’t take it then it would’ve been fatal,” says TC Buntin.
It took Danny 2 years to recover enough to get back to his music. He began booking shows with the Prescott Frontier Day’s Association at the rodeo events and with Dave Mickelson at the Palace Saloon. Danny says that getting back on stage after fighting to recover was one of the defining moments in his life. He says that “music is a therapy, in all portions of his life.” He also says that what he’s learned from his near death experience is that “the human spirit is incredibly strong. It lives in all of us. We are born with it. No matter what we are facing it helps us in every moment of every day and it gives us a will to live and survive.”
