#178 Danielle Todd
A week after playing at the Blue Bird cafe in Nashville Danielle Todd speaks with Rae Leigh on Songwriter Trysts about her new music, songwriting goals, inspirations and ambitions.
\nOver the last few years, Danielle has continued to hone her sound, resulting in a pop-country mix infused with undeniable Stevie Knicks-esque inspiration. With the pop sensibilities of the likes of Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston, a touch of edginess, and a little bit of quirk that Danielle finds indicative of her sound, songs like her debut single, \u201cCrazy,\u201d came to be. Released in early 2019, \u201cCrazy,\u201d co-penned with Bobbi Holliday and Caitie Thompson, took Danielle to higher heights, achieving accolades like Ontario\u2019s Artist of the Month in April 2019 and winning Country 104\u2019s \u201cWomen in Country March Madness\u201d with Carrie Underwood as the competition. The fresh, upbeat tune even went so far as to enjoy a spot at #80 on Canada\u2019s TRAX Report, #28 on Sirius XM\u2019s CBC Country, and #34 on Australia\u2019s Top 50.
\nHer subsequent and most recent single, \u201cBackburner,\u201d was similarly high impact in both Canada and Australia, landing a spot at #23 on the Music Network Hottest Country Charts and introducing the \u201csoft edge\u201d that is indicative of Danielle\u2019s sound.
\nAfter a quiet two years spent uncovering what is most important to her, Danielle makes her highly-anticipated return to the music scene with the Feb 11 release of her single, \u2018Heat of the Moment.\u2019 This energetic, pop country track chronicles a coming-of-age and the wisdom that comes with realizing how good you had it back when you were young and carefree.
