Dan Aran Quartet: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About Dan Aran Quartet

Dan Aran Quartet is a New York City–based jazz group heard in regular club settings, including sets at Smalls Jazz Club. Led by guitarist and composer Dan Aran, the band works in the small-ensemble tradition, using original material alongside standards as a framework for improvisation. Their playing leans on tight interaction and clear melodic through-lines rather than showy displays. The group’s approach reflects a working-band ethic, shaped in front of audiences night after night.
