Middle Child is a musical project that was birthed in 2014 by Dan L. after over a decade of playing guitar in several bands, producing beats, rapping, different styles of electronic music, and playing DJ sets under various aliases. Middle Child has been an outlet used for self-expression, a form of therapy incorporating many musical influences in hopes of touching others through sound. The goal is to give hope to others struggling with mental health/substance abuse issues & ultimately glorify God. 
 Middle Child took 2017 by storm with his future bass releases “Awaken,” “Miracle,” “Bliss” and “Mercy”. One single was even signed to Disco Fries label, Liftoff Recordings. With strong support from EDM Sauce, Your EDM, ThisSongslaps, thatDROP, edmjoy, and many others, his music took off on SoundCloud/YouTube reaching 100’s of thousands of new listeners from around the globe. 'YOU' was signed to Chroma Records/SONY and Middle Child was named one of "EDM Sauce’s Top Artists To Watch" in 2018. 
 
Over the years Middle Child has embraced his motto of producing "Heartfelt music", emotional songs that you can “feel” & “relate” to. His music typically features his guitar work & breaks through genres. In 2019, at “SNOWTA” Fest, Middle Child shared the stage with Mersiv, ARMNHMR, GHASTLY, NGHTMRE, and Marshmello. 
 To date, his music has garnered more than 100 million listens from around the world.
