Daniel Balthasar has written songs and music for more than a decade now. In this period he released one home-record, aswell as two full-length studio-albums.

When it comes to his activities as a solo-artist, Daniel is joined by his band, that some may call "The Blue Clusters". However, this name has never been officially confirmed by the band or anyone else. The members of the band are James Gierens (guitars and vocals), Gilles Loes (Bass), Michel Mootz (drums) and Emmanuelle Seiwerath (cello). Together they played some memorable concerts like the Terres-Rouges, the support show for Razorlight and the Popkomm in Berlin.

Besides, Daniel Balthasar and his band had the honour to be the first luxembourgian band ever to be invited to the South-by-Southwest Festival in Austin/ Texas in spring 2006. Daniel is currently working on his third solo-studio-album...

As a side project, Daniel writes experimental pseudo-electronic music for the video-installations and short-movies of the artist Véronique Kolber. Three videos and three short-movies are so far the result of this collaboration.
Finally, Daniel is guitarist of the alternative band Blue Room. He collaborated with bandleader Jim Brimeyer on two of his albums. The members of Blue Room are Jim Brimeyer (Band-leader, guitars and vocals), Daniel Balthasar (guitars and vocals), Jean-Claude Birkel (Bass) and Michel Mootz (drums). .
