He joined the band in 1996 [2] but they broke up in 1999.[3] In the same year, Keith Barney, who was the guitarist of a hardcore punk band, Death by Stereo, left the band, so Dan took over Keith's place as the lead guitarist.[4][5]

In 2013, a punk rock band Zebrahead offered him to join them as the lead guitarist after Greg Bergdorf left the band and he accepted it.[6] He has been using Fernandes guitars for a long time.[1]
