Music's Journey INTERVIEW w/ Country Artist ''Dani Strong''
Canadian Country Artist Dani Strong Released Sophomore Album ''Undefined'' today on Oct. 23
Toronto, ON – Rising country music powerhouse Dani Strong is poised to make a lot of noise with the release of her second album, Undefined, available physically and on all streaming platforms Oct. 23. Working with JUNO-winning producer/engineer Dan Brodbeck, who also produced her 2016 debut album Time To Breathe, Dani lives up to her name on this new collection of 13 songs, which offer messages of strength, hope, and empowerment.
Fans received a taste earlier this year when the single “Wild Summer” was released in time for the change of season, racking up over 600K streams on Apple Music. Undefined’s opening cut, “Not Right Now,” was also featured in the Amazon Prime movie Hometown Holiday. The album’s latest single, “Mrs. Jones (Evelyn),” displays the full range of Dani’s storytelling skills by painting a vivid portrait of a woman whose pursuit of material wealth has left her alone. The single won the title of Best Country Song at the 2020 Independent Music Awards.
It’s all part of what made the title Undefined the most natural choice for the album, as Dani explains. “The hardest thing for me to do as a songwriter is to define my sound or genre,” she says. “I have always fancied myself a fairly diverse writer. For better or worse, it’s pretty hard to pick just one box to put myself into. So for this record, I said, ‘f$*# it, I’m just going to record songs that mean a lot to me—and hopefully others—and put them all on one record! My goal as a writer is to give the listener something they can relate to, or lean on and I believe there is a lot of potential for that in this album for my listeners."
Splitting her time between B.C. and Ontario over the past several years, Dani has earned consistent praise for her performances at such prestigious events as Boots & Hearts, the Calgary Stampede, Canadian Music Week, and Burlington, Ontario’s Sound Of Music Festival. She has also opened for a wide range of country stars, including Luke Bryan, The Road Hammers, Meghan Patrick, and Tebey.
Dani’s plans to hit the road again this year were set aside after she completed Undefined just before pandemic restrictions were put into place. However, now settled in Kimberley B.C., she embraced having more time to spend with her husband and children, hiking, camping, and generally embracing her new digs, a feeling captured on one of Undefined’s most uplifting numbers, “Mountains.”
Still, rest assured that as soon as she is able, Dani and her longtime band will be back out there, transferring the energy of Undefined to stages, and proving without a shadow of a doubt that she is one of Canada’s most exciting and dynamic country music singer/songwriters.
