I am a classically trained recording artist and transformational sound healer. My stylistic range encompasses opera, oratorio, musical theater, pop, folk, rock, jazz, chant and inspirational. From theatrical stages to concert halls to spiritual venues, I’ve enjoyed moving and inspiring audiences for over 35 years.
Teaching others has been my joy throughout my life. I’ve had some incredible performing experiences and what really lights me up is helping students to speak up and sing out in an enjoyable, empowering way. I love it when I can help someone feel a feeling, or get in touch with their power!
My private students come to sing for fun, to prepare for an interview or audition, and others have distinguished themselves in various projects and have gone on to study music and perform professionally. I’ve served as a music and choir director and facilitates vocal workshops and clinics, and share my vocal program with students, workshop participants and my popular Singing Makes you Happy class. I expand upon this in sound healing sessions and singing circles in which I encourages singing and sounding as a spiritual practice.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Music from Mount Holyoke College and studied opera at The New England Conservatory of Music. I’ve appeared as soloist with choirs, orchestras and in European cathedrals, starred in professional musical theater, has been a session singer in Nashville, and have even sung backups for a Las Vegas Elvis Act! I’ve toured across North America, Europe and the San Francisco Bay Area, performing cabaret, Big Band, jazz, and contemporary music at numerous corporate, private and social events. In my concerts, such as The Deeper Still Concert Experience, I draw from my vast repertoire to ride the full range of human expression to sweep the audience into a powerful transformative experience.
Danielle has been called The Voice of the Divine Feminine, singing the full range of human expression and rising ever again to affirm that all is well. She performs and songleads at churches, conferences, and other spiritual events.
My voice has been featured on many albums, such as Sterling Ovations, and work as a session singer for commissioned works and voice over projects.
I’ve recorded two full length solo albums: Pure Imagination, and Deeper Still, a collection of songs and chants that comfort and inspire.
