Dan Wolf is a hip-hop artist who works with rap, theater, personal narrative, and history to give voice to the problematic world we live in. Wolf’s multi-sensory work draws its power from years of experience working, teaching, and performing with the critically acclaimed hip-hop music and theatre collective Felonious. His debut album Blood and Bones, Skin and Scars is a fearless exploration of ideals, values, and vulnerability, and marks his debut as a solo hip-hop musician. His projects have travelled all around the world, from concert halls to museums to schools and memorial sites, where he engages history and culture as prompts to make vital music and theater that can only live in this moment. Wolf is a resident playwright at the Playwright Foundation in San Francisco and the co-founder of the Bay Area Theatre Cypher, a collective of performers who live at the crossroads of hip hop, theater, activism, and community.
