Check out the site www.allmusic.com and search for Dann Huff to see (nearly) everything he has played on and produced in his amazing career. He is involved heavily in many Country and Christian projects lately. He played a large part (vocals and guitar, I think?) in a band called White Heart in the 80s before forming Giant. I met the man once when I attended the Country Radio Seminar in Nashville. He is very much aware of all the Giant fans around the world, but unfortunately, he will not be returning to his rock style anytime soon (although he did mention putting out some unreleased Giant stuff someday). He has an amazing voice and is one of the most respected guitarists in the biz. But, he makes too good a living as a producer now. It would be difficult for him to give it up. He produced a country album for a guy named Shane Minor last year (kind of like the male Shania). The band included Dann (guitar), David Huff (drums), and Michael Brignardello (bass). That's three-forths of Giant right there. Also, Dann released an instrumental album in Japan this year called "Solos". I think it's relatively hard to come by, but if you do a little digging I'm sure it's out there.
An obvious Dann Huff fan,
