Biography


Captain Squeegee is a seven-piece psychedelic indie-rock band formed in Mesa Arizona in 2002.[4] Originally a ska band, they have no original members[5] and now blend progressive rock, jazz, and theatrical music to create a sound that is experimental and complex, having been described as “...a musical-theorist/band-geeks dream”.[6] The members are musically trained and read/chart music including their original material, and several of them have music degrees.[7][5] The band has released three albums and an EP.[8] They have toured the southwestern US several times and performed at SXSW,[9] Warped Tour, and several other festivals in Arizona.[10] Captain Squeegee has opened for acts such as Thank You Scientist, Parliament Funkadelic, Foxy Shazaam, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Widespread Panic, and Beck.

Danny Torgersen, lead singer of Captain Squeegee, is currently on tour with Badfish as their trumpet player, and also tours as the trumpet player for Arizona reggae rock band Fayuca.
