Dango was born as Josh Cellan in Dallas, Texas on May 6th, 1981. He names Abe Laboriel Jr., Tommy Lee, and Jordan Burns as favorite drummers.



Dango graduated with a bachelors degree in music from Belmont University

in Nashville, TN where he had the priviledge of studying under Chester Thompson and Brian Fullen.



Dango currently plays drums in Seattle based punk-pop group Amber Pacific.



In 2004 Dango flew out from Tennessee where he had been a studio drummer for some bigger name artists (but there was no passion for him in the genres those artists played).



So with a ridiculous amount of college debt (from going to a private music college) he decided that he would move out to Washington and rough it out trying to be in a band that played the music he liked: Amber Pacific.
