Daniel Strickland Music: live singer, guitarist and pianist

BOSTON — DanielStricklandMusic.com is now live. The new home for singer, guitarist and pianist Daniel Strickland brings his original music, his official music video, his live-event booking and a place for fans to connect into one site, designed and built by Fenway Web.

Live music that fits the room

Daniel is a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist who plays acoustic guitar and piano and carries a deep, flexible repertoire. The site is built around what he does best: reading a room. That means warm, understated sets during dinner and bigger, crowd-facing sets when the night calls for it.

He plays restaurants, breweries, weddings, private parties, corporate events, festivals and community events. Every booking includes solo live vocals with acoustic guitar and/or piano, a professional, self-contained sound setup, and set lengths shaped around the event.

Original songs, front and center

Beyond the covers and crowd favorites, Daniel writes and records his own music, and the site gives each song its own spotlight with a 30-second preview and a link to the full track on Apple Music:

  • Together Again (2025)
  • Love San Antone (2024)
  • Rest of Our Lives (2024), with its official music video on the homepage
  • Father I Draw Near, featuring Lauren Johnson (2023)

Built for fans, not just bookings

The launch goes beyond a brochure site. Fans can sign in on any song page to leave a comment on the fan wall, sign up to be notified when new show dates land, and follow Daniel on Facebook for clips and announcements. Public show dates will appear on the site first, with one tap to add a show to your calendar or get directions.

How to book Daniel

Planning a wedding, a private party, a company event or a night out at your restaurant or brewery? Visit danielstricklandmusic.com and choose Book Daniel to check availability. You can also stream his music on Apple Music and follow along on Facebook.

Built by Fenway Web

DanielStricklandMusic.com is the latest launch from Fenway Web, the marketing and web agency that designs and builds every Boston Made site and builds websites for outside clients. If you want a site that feels this alive for your own business, start with Fenway Web.

Boston Made Unveils Five Native Apps for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch

WORCESTER, Mass., October 29, 2026 — Boston Made, Inc. today unveiled five native apps for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch: Boston Made, Paxton, GrandStrand, Spot Check and BOSSTOX. Each app was designed and built from the ground up by Fenway Web, the company’s design and development studio. Each launches with live content from day one, and all five are coming to the App Store as free downloads.

It is the largest single product release in the company’s history. For the first time, the stories, research, guides and local information that run across the Boston Made family of websites live in purpose-built apps that work offline and feel at home on Apple devices. On iPhone, each app opens to a calm, readable feed. On iPad, it becomes a magazine-style layout. On Apple Watch, the essentials sit a glance away.

Five apps, one standard

Every app in the family shares the same foundation: fast native screens, saved stories that can be read offline, clean typography and a design that matches its brand’s website. The apps follow Apple’s design conventions closely, from Dynamic Type and dark mode to the iPad split layouts and Apple Watch complications.

They also share a privacy-first approach. None of the five apps collects personal data. There are no accounts to create and no tracking, and the apps work the moment they are opened.

What each app does

Boston Made brings the whole Boston Made family into one feed. Today’s stories from across the network arrive in a single place, and any story can be saved for offline reading. On iPad, Today becomes a magazine with big photography and side-by-side reading.

Paxton is healthcare insight, analyzed. Deals, markets and policy are explained in plain English, with briefings that can be saved and read anywhere. Paxton Scout, the research layer, surfaces clinical, IP and market context for the companies in the news.

BOSSTOX covers markets and the AI build-out: data centers, chips, power and the companies building the next era of computing. Live market quotes sit alongside plain-English BOSSTOX research and headlines, and a glanceable research feed lives on Apple Watch. BOSSTOX is research and news, not investment advice.

GrandStrand is the coast, connected: live Myrtle Beach weather and tides, a map of the whole Grand Strand from Little River to Pawleys Island, daily briefings and what is happening today. On Apple Watch, Coast Now shows conditions on the beach in a glance.

Spot Check helps drivers find parking near them, read local parking guides for game days and big events, and save the spots they love. The iPad version puts every garage, lot and driveway along a route on one big map.

What comes next

The launch is a starting line. Over the coming months, each app picks up features that turn it from a reader into a place to get things done:

  • BOSSTOX: in-app stock trading is on the way. The app today is markets, research and headlines; trading is not yet available.
  • Paxton: a healthcare marketplace is being built into the app.
  • Boston Made: a shop with thousands of products is coming to the Boston Made app.
  • Spot Check: through a partnership with LAZ Parking, thousands of bookable parking spaces are coming into the app.
  • GrandStrand: Myrtle Beach restaurants, venues and real-estate agents are joining the app to showcase the best of the coast.
  • Lumo and PUPWEAR® are next in line for their own apps.

Availability

Boston Made, Paxton, GrandStrand, Spot Check and BOSSTOX are coming soon to the App Store as free downloads for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. Each app has its own home on the web: bostonmade.app, paxton.app, grandstrand.app, spotcheck.app and bosstox.com/app.

Five Things We Changed on Twelve Sites This Week, and Why Your Site Should Copy Them

Ecosystem Intelligence Desk

Published

on

boston brownstone

This week we finished rolling a shared navigation layer across the twelve Boston Made sites. Different themes, different hosts, different ages. Here is what changed, and what we’d recommend for any multi-site business.

1. One shell, served from one place

Each site loads a single script that renders the same network bar, footer and call-to-action from one master file. Change the file once and every site updates. If you run more than one site, stop copying footers by hand.

2. Fixed elements get a stacking rule

Our dock was invisible on one site because the theme’s main wrapper had a z-index of 9999. Decide the order once: content, then header, then docks, then notifications, then dialogs. Write the numbers down.

3. Notifications never cover navigation

Cookie prompts and popups now measure the dock and sit above it. A banner that covers your primary navigation is a banner people close without reading.

4. Mobile menus are lists, not posters

We replaced full-bleed photo tiles with compact rows: a small thumbnail, a readable label, a chevron. Photos in a menu should help you recognize a destination, not compete with its name.

5. One search for the whole network

The flagship homepage now searches stories from all twelve sites and offers direct actions. If a visitor cannot find your other brands from your main site, they do not exist to that visitor.

The test we use

Open every site on a phone, as a stranger. Can you tell they belong together in two seconds? Can you get from any one to any other in one tap? If not, you have a portfolio, not a network.

Written by Fenway Web, the agency tribe of Boston Made.
