My Story

---

Hello, and welcome! Since you have successfully stumbled upon this page, you probably know by now that my name is Dani Sven. I was born and raised in Derry, New Hampshire. Small town...big dreams. 

At a young age, before I could even talk, music spoke to me. You could catch me standing on the living room coffee table, rocking to my parents’ CD’s - Aerosmith, Van Halen, The Eagles, and more. I’m not sure if my parents even knew what they had gotten into; my great grandmother described me as a “vivacious young being.” 

My love for music has grown through the years; I was in school band and jazz band where I played alto, tenor and baritone saxophone. It wasn’t too long after that, that I picked up the guitar. After graduating from Pinkerton Academy, there was a period of time where I fought with myself in choosing between what most would call, a “traditional career path” versus following my passion for entrepreneurship. In 2020, I got serious about my passion for music and initiated “Get Gig Ready” coaching with local music and performing legend, Chad LaMarsh. Through these sessions, my artistry has grown quickly and immensely. My first gig was New Year’s Eve 2021, and just months later, I began my own solo gigs at local restaurants as my full-time job! I also had the opportunity to join the Chad LaMarsh Band as a lead vocalist!

Creating in general is extremely important to me; in addition to music, I also create handmade art pieces which will soon be featured on this website.

I am so grateful to be doing what I love for a living! My favorite part of performing is how much of a privilege it is to express myself in such an authentic way and connecting with new people constantly through it all. Co-creation is what it’s all about, and music brings people together! That “little girl dancing on the coffee tables” dreams have started to manifest! Thanks for all your support and for being on this crazy, creative journey with me.
