Daniel Robert Powter (born February 25, 1971) is a Canadian Grammy Award-nominated recording artist. With few local musical influences, he credits his early exposure to music to his mother, who was a pianist and directed him into music as a child.

Daniel Powter's first piano pop single, "Bad Day" debuted not in his home country of Canada, but rather in Europe in mid-2005. It was chosen by Warner Brothers as a submission for commercial production and was subsequently chosen by Coca-Cola as the theme song for an ad campaign in Europe. Additionally, "Bad Day" was used extensively by American Idol in its fifth season. The song achieved heavy airplay in most European countries, and made it as high as number three on the overall European airplay chart.

On July 2, 2005, Powter performed at the Berlin installment of Live 8, a simultaneous group of concerts in nine countries intended to raise awareness of poverty in Africa and put pressure on world leaders for aid. On April 1, 2006, he was named the best new artist at the Canadian Juno Awards.


A grammy nomination followed in the pop vocal performance category which went to John Mayer at the ceremony held in Los Angeles in February 2007.

In his album 'DP' Daniel confirms Powter's fine songwriting talents with standout tracks such as the memorable opening track "Song 6", the driving melodies of "Suspect" and the delicate ballad "Jimmy Gets High". It was produced by Mitchell Froom (Elvis Costello, Crowded House) and Powter's long-term collaborator Jeff Dawson.
