This month we are paying tribute to "Songwriters". First up, is Dan Fogelberg. Daniel Grayling Fogelberg (August 13, 1951 - December 16, 2007) was a musician, songwriter, composer, and multi-instrumentalist. He is best known for hits like "Same Old Lang Syn", "Leader of the Band", and his biggest charted hit "Longer". Dan was raised in Peoria Illinois. with two older brothers and his Classically trained pianist mother Margaret, and his father Peter, who was a band director at Woodruff High School, Pekin Community High School, and at Bradley University. Peter Fogelberg used to let Dan "conduct" the Bradley University band when he was just 4 years old. This served as an inspiration to later writing the song "Leader of the Band".
