Daniel John Tyminski (born June 20, 1967) is an American bluegrass singer-songwriter and musician. He is a former member of Alison Krauss's band Union Station, and has released four solo albums, Carry Me Across the Mountain (2000) on the Doobie Shea Records label, Wheels (2008) on the Rounder Records label, Southern Gothic (2017) on the Mercury Records label, and God Fearing Heathen (2023) on the 8 Track Entertainment label.[1]
He is known for his updated version of the song "Man of Constant Sorrow," which was featured in the movie O Brother, Where Art Thou? and won the 2001 CMA award for best single as well as a Grammy Award for best Country Collaboration with Vocals (along with Harley Allen and Pat Enright, filling out the vocals for the movie's Soggy Bottom Boys). In total, he has won 14 Grammy Awards[2][3] for solo and collaborative projects. In 2013, he was the vocalist on Avicii's international hit "Hey Brother" from the album True. Tyminski received the Bluegrass Star Award from the Bluegrass Heritage Foundation of Dallas, Texas, in 2021. The award is bestowed upon bluegrass artists who do an exemplary job of advancing traditional bluegrass music while preserving its character and heritage.[4][5]
Early life
Tyminski was born in Rutland, Vermont to Patricia (née Wood) and Stanley J. "Stosh" Tyminski Sr., an automobile mechanic.[6][7]
Musical career
In July 2009 the Martin Guitar Company issued, as part of their Custom Artist Series, a D28 Dreadnought acoustic guitar in recognition of Dan's life devoted to performing bluegrass and old-time music. The guitar, named Martin D-28 Dan Tyminski Custom Edition, was issued with its own distinctive details to appeal to flatpickers.[8]
At the Ultra Music Festival 2013, he premiered a new single, "Hey Brother", as part of a country-electronic collaboration with Swedish producer Avicii. The song was a Top 5 hit in more than 15 countries, including Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Slovakia, Macedonia and the United Kingdom. In May 2024, "Hey Brother" surpassed one billion streams on the Spotify streaming platform. [9][10][11]
In 2017, Tyminski released a new solo album, Southern Gothic, through Mercury Records Nashville. The lead single was "Bloodline".[12] The bluegrass album, God Fearing Heathen, was released on 23 June 2023, featuring a bluegrass styled re-release of "Hey Brother" .[13][14]
Tyminski is an avid golfer, and was named to Golf Digest's "Top 100 Golfers in Music."[15] He regularly competes at celebrity golf tournaments, including the Monday After Masters tournament in Myrtle Beach, SC,[16][17] the Murray Bros. Caddyshack tournament in St. Augustine, FL,[18] and The Vinny golf tournament in Nashville, TN.[19][20]
