our songs are so incredibly relatable. I felt so seen and heard and understood. The combination of different performing artists were aesthetically and narratively so soothing, interesting, and exciting.
I loved every time Dana was personal with us, and so authentic and herself. Her work, her show and her as a person is so inspiring! “
“An amazing multidisciplinary showcase with impressive creativity throughout <3”
“Simple and elegantly produced. “
“I’m so happy that I got to experience it! Dana brings such an immersive and theatrical quality to her performance. Her style is like a crossover of Tori Amos and Emilie Autumn but with a unique power all her own. She sings without abandon and captivates the audience with a clear love for her craft! I immediately added her music to my collection and as I listened back on the way home, it was so easy to visualize the cinematic caliber she brings. This is an artist you must see live! “
