We had the pleasure of interviewing Danny Dwyer over Zoom video! Hailing from St. Louis, MO, Danny is an LA-based singer/songwriter & producer whose genreless music straddles indie rock, alternative, pop, and everything in between. He grew up learning jazz and playing in punk bands which eventually led him to college in Los Angeles where he studied music and started working on his solo artist project. Following a break-up in 2017, Danny turned to writing as he released his first song 'What You Want' as part of a school assignment. Mixing contemporary R&B with his love of indie music, the song's early success inspired him to pursue his solo artist project. A genre chameleon, Danny seamlessly straddles different musical styles and sounds, bringing in diverse musical influences from his childhood and development. Recent collaborators include Benny Sings, Billy Lemos, Roy Blair, Ritt Momney, Magdalena Bay, RAC, Maria Isabel, Kllo, Maude Latour, Chloe Lilac, MILK, Marcos G, Jelani Aryeh, Brandon Banks and more. Danny's music has been featured in playlists such as Spotify's Lorem, Mellow Morning, Mellow Mood, Fresh Finds and Alternative R&B and Apple's INDIY, Day One and more. Danny has also received press from outlets such as Pigeons & Planes, OnesToWatch and Office amongst others. Mortal Kombat" is the fifth single off the anti-pop artist and producer's upcoming debut double EP, Losers, an emotional portrayal of liberated youth. The EP is a love letter and a goodbye note to his rural stomping grounds of the Midwest. "I used to feel the need to exploit as much as possible from any opportunity," Danny says of the way LA twisted him. "Now I want to work on my bike and make sense of where I come from and where I am. All of these things I've compartmentalized for so long are now colliding." The result is a collection of coming-of-age songs that have one foot in Friday Night Lights and another in Harmony Korine's Kids. WATCH "MORTAL KOMBAT" -
