Michigan’s newest lo-fi soul artist Dani Darling (aka Soul Galaxy Girl) has shared her haunting new single “Stranger,” ahead of her live New York City debut at the Uptown Soul Lounge showcase event tonight (4/26/2019). Premiered exclusively on Singersroom on Wednesday (4/24/2019), “Stranger” is now available on all digital platforms. The single is from the angelic singer/songwriter’s forthcoming debut EP Nocturne.
“Stranger’ was initially the start of a jazzy musical I planned to write with a friend. The idea was to create a modern version of a jazz standard like Cole Porter or Gershwin; something Nat King Cole would sing. It started with exploring the concept of growing apart from someone you were once very close to and ‘Stranger’ was the first (and only) song I wrote for that project; it kind of took on a life of its own.It was the result of a live recording in one take.” – Dani Darling

More About Dani Darling
Dani Darling is an old soul, merging nostalgic jazz with a new style of lo-fi R&B/soul, inspired by the likes of Jamila Woods, Aaliyah and Billie Holiday. You can feel this phenomenon in Dani’s words and vocals. The jazzy chanteuse from Ann Arbor, Michigan exudes an experimental sound that is intimate and acoustic, with grace that runs deep. Her influences span old hollywood movie scores, love, and the Universe – but this singer/songwriter’s goal isn’t to take you back in time; it’s to bring you into her whimsical world where time is like an old tune made new. She has worked as a collaborating artist with The Black Opera as Soul Galaxy Girl, and performs with her band of “Darlings.”
