LA GRANGE IL - Wesley’s Place Live Music Venue presents an acoustic evening with Kentucky singer-songwriter and storyteller Daniel Neihoff on Friday August 14 at 7:00 pm. The event takes place at the First United Methodist Church of La Grange, 100 W. Cossitt Avenue.

Born in Texas and raised in Kentucky, Daniel wrote his first song at 8 years old, surrounded by a family fit for country songs. Now living in Paducah, KY, he honed his skills playing at church and learning from masterful guitar player Cheryl Yates.

At 20, his smooth and soulful sound landed him a spot at Nashville’s iconic Bluebird Cafe. His debut album reached number 32 on the iTunes singer/songwriter charts. Neihoff’s accolades include winning the Kerrville New Folk Competition in 2019, being a 3-time finalist of Songwriter Serenade, placing 3rd in the Woody Guthrie songwriter contest, and winning the Rocky Mountain Songwriters Contest in 2023. He has been featured on PBS, with Lori Walsh of SDPB saying, “Daniel Neihoff, you are just what we need.” The world is hearing his range of storytelling and compelling melodies, all with a soulful bend, marking the launch of a voice both familiar and unique.
