Life and career edit
Dann Hume was born Daniel Benjamin Cobbe,[6][7] and is the youngest son of the Hume family. In 1999, with his two brothers, he formed Evermore in Feilding. He has co-written songs for Evermore such as "Running", "Light Surrounding You" as well as the first single from Dreams, "It's Too Late". Soon after the release of Evermore's fourth studio album Follow the Sun in late 2012, Hume stepped away from touring with the band to focus on music production.
As a producer he has worked with a host of Australian artists including Lisa Mitchell, Matt Corby, Amy Shark, Alpine, Troye Sivan, Client Liaison, Snakadaktal, Sticky Fingers, Courtney Barnett, Hopium and Kita Alexander.[8]
Lisa Mitchell's 'Wonder' achieved ARIA Platinum status, and albums reaching ARIA Gold status include Matt Corby's debut Telluric, Sticky Fingers' Caress Your Soul. Kita Alexander's Hotel, and Amy Shark's 'Weekends' achieved ARIA Platinum and Gold status, respectively. At the ARIA Music Awards of 2019, Hume won Producer of the Year for his work on Corby's album, Rainbow Valley.[9]
