Dan Talevski is a Canadian singer-songwriter from Georgetown, Ontario with Macedonian descent, currently signed to eOne Music Canada. His career first began as an online YouTube sensation in 2007 posting covers of popular songs. Since then he has gone on to work with will.i.am, Soulja Boy, Shawn Desman, Keisha Chante, Timbaland, Tyler Shaw and was selected as direct support for Backstreet Boys on their 2010 This Is Us Tour. His most recent work is the latest single "Rocket" released August 19, 2016.
At the age of 20, Talevski had already garnered a massive internet following in 2007 thanks to his first viral video; a short clip of him singing "What Goes Around, Comes Around" by Justin Timberlake. After receiving mass attention online he began taking requests from fans and has posted several covers of popular songs to his channel. As his fan base continued to grow many people began to take notice including Polow Da Don who reached out to Talevski and flew him out to Los Angeles to meet Jimmy Iovine the President of Interscope Records. This would lead to his major label signing and allowed him to release his debut single "Do It Again" on November 8, 2010 featuring Soulja Boy and produced by will.i.am.
In 2009 Backstreet Boys announced their world tour for their new album and announced select openers in different regions. Talevski made his debut to the stage joining the tour from August 6, 2010 to August 16, 2010 playing to thousands of people in arenas across Canada.Howie Dorough would introduce Talevski at the beginning of each set since he is a new artist beginning his career playing sold-out shows to many fans. Howie managed Talevski along with CJ Huyer as 3Street Management. This close relationship would lead to Talevski filling the support slots for the Canadian dates of tour and his chance to play some new songs live including "Do It Again".
