He was also a lead singer in the Ultimate Eagles. Danny Vaughn is a product of Steiner education.

It stayed with me ever since.” His schooling taught Vaughn to read and enjoy classical music, though his teenage years were filled with a love for the pop classics, especially Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel: anything that provided harmonizing, folk-rock, edged with the baroque. After leaving school, Danny played in several local cover bands, many of them playing classic covers in rock-joints around Rockland County. “One day I got a messa ...
