In addition to their own material, the group’s members have collaborated with Justin Bieber, Rascal Flatts, Lindsey Stirling, RaeLynn, and Kelly Clarkson. From 2019 to 2021, the duo won three consecutive Grammy Awards for Best Country Duo/Group Performance for the songs “Tequila”, “Speechless”, and “10,000 Hours”
Dan + Shay‘s musical style has been described as country, country pop and pop. They also utilize elements of pop, country rock, soft rock and R&B.
In describing their sound, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic stated, “specializing in country-pop so smooth it would also sound at home on adult contemporary radio” and “their inherent sweetness served as a counterpoint to the swaggering bro-country that dominated mainstream country during the mid-2010s.” Taste of Country compared them to Rascal Flatts and Love and Theft.
The duo has cited many musical influences. Dan Smyers cited artists such as Ryan Adams, Tom Petty, Kenny Chesney and Alison Krauss as musical influences. Shay Mooney cited artists such as Rascal Flatts, Dave Matthews Band, Usher and Kenny Chesney as musical influences. BILLBOARD noted musical influences from The Beach Boys, Electric Light Orchestra, Alan Jackson and Brooks & Dunn on the duo’s fourth album, Good Things.
According to Dan Smyers in an interview: “We write country songs — the topline, the lyrics of these songs…We grew up listening to all kinds of music, not just country but pop, rock, R&B, hip-hop, everything… and you hear that in the music.”
Their discography includes six studio albums and 16 singles.
