Dan Miles

Dan Miles began his musical journey in the 5th grade, playing the saxophone, and continued through high school, adding guitar, bass, banjo, drums, and ukulele to his repertoire. After high school, he graduated from the Conservatory of Recording Arts & Sciences in Tempe, Arizona, specializing in Audio Engineering.

Dan’s performance career includes playing drums and guitar in local bands such as Easterly, Believing in June, and Bendixon. He now focuses on his solo recording project, Pace Arrow. Before joining RiverCity Rock Star Academy in November 2021 as part of the Pro Shop team, Dan managed ABC Music in Downtown Salem for 18 years, where he developed a deep connection with the local music community.

Outside of music, Dan is an avid runner, frequently seen exploring the sidewalks and parks of Salem. He believes that musical breakthroughs often occur when you push past moments of challenge and persevere.

As RiverCity’s Retail Manager, Dan blends his musical expertise, technical knowledge, and passion for community to support the academy and its musicians.
