Dan Avidan Biography (Age)

After graduating from high school in 1997, Dan Avidan enrolled at Boston University to study advertising. However, he did not complete this program when he decided to transfer to Tufts University in France, where he changed his major in botany and epidemiology.
After college, Avidan turned his full attention to music, which had always been his passion. In late 2002, he joined a Philadelphia-based indie rock band called The Northern Hues. He served as the band’s lead singer and songwriter and the group managed to release an EP. They didn’t achieve much success, however, and so split up in mid-2005. Unaffected by this setback, Dan Avidan took until 2006 to form an alternative rock duo called Skyhill with budding musician Peter Lennox. The duo managed to release a full-length album and even toured New York before splitting up in 2008.
After his second unsuccessful attempt at floating a musical group, Avidan did some introspection and realized he also had a talent for comedy. He therefore took part in improvisation and storytelling courses and then joined forces with the musician Brian Wecht. Together they founded the musical comedy duo Ninja Sex Party (NSP) in 2009. Her songs deal with topics such as sex, seduction and love. Avidan portrays a hypersexual Jewish man (Danny Sexbang), while Wecht portrays an uncommunicative murderous ninja known as Ninja Brian.
Since meeting in 2009, NSP has released at least seven studio albums. Four of these are originals (NSFW, Strawberries and Cream, Attitude City and Cool Patrol), while three are covers of songs from the 70’s and 80’s. NSP also appeared at several film festivals including SXSW.
