Manage episode 449982453 series 3374080
Daniela M is a London-based independent singer, songwriter, and music educator, with deep roots in both the UK and Italy. A graduate of Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, she blends her passion for neo-soul, jazz, pop, and Italian music into a unique, soulful sound. Her songwriting explores themes of personal strength, relationships, and introspection.
Daniela has performed internationally, sharing stages with artists like Robin Banerjee (former guitarist of Amy Winehouse) and Ray Gelato (The God Father of Swing), and has been featured at iconic venues like the 100 Club and Southbank Centre. As a session vocalist and topliner, she collaborates with independent labels and producers in Pop, R&B, Jazz, Indie and Electro swing genres. She released her debut single "Lies" in 2021, with more original music on the way - the new video drops end of September 2024 and a new single in mid-November called "Waiting".
Beyond her artistry, Daniela is a dedicated vocal coach and founder of The Great Windmill Studio, offering artist development and recording services. Daniela has also assisted on two European tours for Gypsy jazz Argentinian guitarist virtuoso Gonzalo Bergara and secured for them a sponsorship with Duende Percusion.
She looks after outreach and creatives programmes at London College of Contemporary Music, bridging the gap between creative talent, higher education and the music industry. Equally at home managing events and collaborations, she has worked with notable guests such as Dr. Matthew Knowles (Beyonce), Fraser T. Smith (Adele, Kae Tempest), Leig-Ann (Lil-Mix) and charitable organisations like Youth Music. Her love for jazz even brought forward the partnership between EFG and LCCM too!
Daniela is a passionate advocate for gender equity in the music industry, dedicated to empowering the next generation of musicians, hosting panels, events, meet ups. She is also the founder of W Creative Studios, a nonprofit organisation that connects emerging artists with vacant spaces in central London, fostering opportunities for creative growth and collaboration.
