About Danny Seraphine
Daniel Peter Seraphine (born August 28, 1948) is an American drummer, record producer, theatrical producer, and film producer. He is best known as the original drummer and a founding member of the rock band Chicago, a tenure which lasted from February 1967 to May 1990. Seraphine co-wrote several charting singles for the band, including "Lowdown", "Little One", "Take Me Back to Chicago", "No Tell Lover", and "Thunder and Lightning". His song "Street Player", which was also used as the title of his 2011 autobiography, was also sampled by Kenny Dope on "The Bomb! (These Sounds Fall into My Mind)" and later incorporated into "I Know You Want Me (Calle Ocho)" by Pitbull via a sample from the song "75, Brazil Street". Seraphine used his home studio to record demos. In 1974, during the peak of the band's career, Seraphine co-founded B'Ginnings, a music venue with capacity of almost 1,000, in the northwest suburbs of Chicago.
