Let's make this birthday one to remember.

71 years old (Born on September 26, 1953)

Happy Birthday, Dan Knight! You've officially reached the jazzy age where improvising is no longer just for your piano solos, but a daily necessity. Rumor has it your fingers are now classified as musical treasures—insured separately since they're responsible for those mesmerizing melodies that left Carnegie Hall audiences begging you not to leave the stage.

Recently labeled "one of the finest solo pianists in the world," some say you've peaked—but we know better. Every birthday means a new chapter filled with fresh notes, improvised brilliance, and standing ovations. Here's to more jazz-filled adventures ahead; may your keys never fall flat!
