For Danielle Ponder it took the shape of a leap of faith: leaving her successful day job working in the public defender’s office in her hometown of Rochester to devote herself full-time to sharing her powerful voice with the world. Many know the beginnings of her story which include the ending of her career as a public defender. What happened next? In February 2021, Ponder signed with Chris Douridas and Tom Windish — an agent who has worked with artists like Billie Eilish and Lorde— for management. Since then life has not been the same. She met with dozens labels and eventually signed with Future Classic at age 40! The singer-songwriter’s mesmerizing 8 song debut, "Some of Us Are Brave" reinforces that her faith was not misplaced, and her leap has been rewarded with a safe landing. danielleponder.com ------------ This event is FREE and open to the public.

Her emotional journey from sorrow to joy is the focus, even more than her sturdy songs. ” - Rolling Stones
