Hailing from Venice Beach, California, beach bum, artist and producer Dannii Scott is well-versed in the art of blending musical styles. Following the development of an uplifting pop-packed catalogue of sonic goodness, his new take on infectious dance productions and signature disco infused sound uncovers a more in-depth form of storytelling. Now returning to the spotlight with a playful yet reflective offering ‘PRETTY LITTLE BABY’, yet again he delivers a track that ignites the summer season and prickles the ears of many.
Undoubtedly an artist born out of a yearning to make sense of the world around him, Danni Scott possesses a unique talent for the creation of thought-provoking projects rooted in unfeigned experiences. With previous thought-provoking releases like ‘BORA’ putting his name before a well-versed group of music fans, the globe-trotting talent now begins a pursuit to support mental health awareness while continuing to discover a pure means of translating and understanding his experiences.
With this offering packing a punch with its playful, vibrant and ultra-modern style, the rising artist draws inspiration from his travelling experiences. Splitting his time between California, Miami and Brazil, harnessing true encounters and emotions is second nature to the songsmith, as he invites listeners into his headspace while contemplating love and all that encompasses it.
Speaking of his journey, Dannii Scott said:
“My very first EP, ‘BORA’ (a Portuguese word meaning to get up and move!), was inspired by a planned indefinite trip to South America where I ended up falling in love with Brazil and lived there for months.”
Dannii Scott’s lyricism naturally veers towards a stream of consciousness, resembling conversations and battles within himself as he gradually creates a jigsaw of challenging musings. Supported by unique additions of the violin and horn plus a superbly rich topline; all in great anticipation of an impactful and euphonious chorus, driving bass and tantalising drum patterns add the finishing touches as the rising star injects deep contemplation and pure joy into all of his work.
From citing childhood memories of his ‘hippie at heart’ parents, to acknowledging the struggle of mental health obstacles, Dannii Scott has developed his craft to become a truly conceptual artist, envisioning a multitude of creative influences interlocking to create a pure, unadulterated sonic experience.
With a natural propensity for floating between mellow and upbeat productions, this versatility is very much reflective of his personality and naturally, the ever-shifting emotions of his listeners. Entering a new era, with a sharp focus on creating golden, aestival excellence, Dannii Scott’s rallying cry to his fans is simple: laugh, dance, cry and repeat.
“PRETTY LITTLE BABY is about falling madly in love at first sight with a pretty little baby and knowing you would do anything for her to return the feeling of love.” - Dannii Scott
