MORE ABOUT DANIELLE: Considered by many to be South Carolina's best kept musical secret, Danielle Howle is a punk rock girl with the voice of a honkeytonk angel. Since first making the scene in the early '90s with the band Lay Quiet Awhile, Danielle Howle has managed to stay fiercely independent. This folk rocker and artist-in-residence at Awendaw Green is well-known for her lovely Midlands drawl, her stream-of-consciousness banter between songs, and her seemingly endless arsenal of quality original music. Some favorite tunes include “Roses From Leroy's" and "I'll Be Blue" from her 2006 album Thank You Mark. As comfortable sharing the stage with Bob Dylan as Fugazzi, she has garnered worldwide acclaim while somehow remaining under the radar of mainstream America. Now is the time for South Carolina to share it's secret with the rest of America.
While an extensive tour schedule keeps Danielle on the road most of the year, she also works as artist-in-residence at Awendaw Green, http://awendawgreen.com. Awendaw Green's founder and owner of the Echaw Creek Swamp house, Eddie White, says "The house resonates nicely and creaks at the right moments to produce beautiful noise. With Danielle in charge it was truly beautiful."
