Daniel Robert Elfman (born May 29, 1953 in Los Angeles, California) was a singer-songwriter with rock band Oingo Boingo throughout the 1980s, who has since gone on to become one of the most sought-after film composers working in Hollywood today.
Early Career
As a teenager Danny Elfman loved film but never thought he’d end up composing for the medium. In the 1970s, after realising that taking lessons with music teachers wasn’t working for him, he started playing violin in a theatrical troupe in France called Le Grande Magic Circus, of which his elder brother Richard was already a member. The two of them later joined another troupe in Los Angeles called The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo, and it was in this setting that he learned to write original compositions, as well as transcribing and arranging music from the likes of Duke Ellington and Django Reinhart.
