Jass was influenced by The Beatles and Keith Richards, and has been called "one of the loudest Blues-Rock guitarists". John Ervin at The Rake Mag said that "Though he has yet to be showered with awards or riches, Dan has worked his musical chops almost uninterrupted for three decades now, and continues to do so at venues across the state, crossing paths with both up-and-comers and established names".
