Danielle Howle

Oft-compared to Nina Simone and Flannery O'Connor, Danielle Howle is a powerful frontwoman whose vivid, slightly off-kilter musical stories weave a sweet sensibility and bare honesty into her work. Her solo performances are breathtaking; she's one of the few artists that can hold an audience spellbound whether she's backed by a band or alone performing an a cappella number. Howle is just as renowned for her ingenuous between-song banter. Her intuitive, often hilarious insights and her ability to connect with her listeners has brought both critical acclaim and a legion of loyal fans. Which brings us to Thank You, Mark, Howle's first release in four years.

"…one of the South's most underappreciated singer-songwriters and a truly distinctive voice in a crowded field." – ATLANTA JOURNAL CONSTITUTION

"An extraordinary mind, a southern storyteller with a gorgeous sense of melody that should be pouring out of stereos everywhere. She is one to be treasured." – THE NEW YORK TIMES

"Shifting deftly between chiming folk-pop, back-porch balladry and Stax-influenced soul, Howle exudes a laid-back confidence that underscores her versatility." – NO DEPRESSION
