Where did your artist name come from?
It’s actually my middle name.
Group members:
Myself – Dani Paryce (vocals, guitar).
Describe your sound:
Melodic, strong and emotional.
Who are your influences, musical or otherwise?
Vocally I would have to say that Duffy and Jeff Buckley are my biggest influences and musical inspirations, amongst others.
What’s the weirdest experience you’ve had whilst performing?
Performing without fold back speakers in a large room. The sound would take half a second to travel back so everything seemed completely out of sync. It was a really random gig and I had to keep looking over at my fellow guitarist to make sure we were playing in time with each other.
What’s your biggest achievement/proudest moment so far?
I guess just getting out there and performing my stuff. It can be a daunting thing when you share your music and your innermost self to the world around you; music can certainly reveal that.
What are your plans for the future?
I’m hoping to move to Melbourne at the end of next year and delve into the music scene there. Then after that, fame of course J
What makes you laugh?
Life. And my little sister Taylor. She’s a riot!
What pisses you off?
Ignorance.
What’s your opinion of the local scene?
We could do better for the creative folk but it’s definitely growing.
What are your upcoming gigs?
Various places around Canberra. My EP launch is on Saturday November 20 this year @ The Venue, Southside CIT campus.
