Danielle Nicole Schnebelen began music from the moment she was born. Musical influences from generations on both sides of her parent’s families ensured that a love of playing music would continue to be passed among her and her siblings.

Fans love her for her raw yet controlled vocals and her gutsy lyrics, which act like a sucker punch on the often male-dominated blues scene. Critics love her for her obvious skill, honed to a fine point and often garnering her critical acclaim and national awards.

Nicole’s distinctive, inventive bass work—which resulted in her not only becoming the first woman to ever be nominated in the category of Instrumentalist – Bass in The Blues Foundation’s 2012 Blues Music Awards, but also the first woman ever to receive the honor—is the product of years of intensive roadwork.
