Dani Shay is no stranger to the stage, having been a contestant on both NBC’s America’s Got Talent and the most recent season of Oxygen’s The Glee Project. With a handful of releases and viral videos already to her credit, the singer-songwriter is gearing up to release a new EP featuring three uplifting tracks, including a duet with girlfriend and fellow Glee Project contestant Ali Stroker. Dani will release One: The Winter EP just in time for the holidays.
Dani’s new music video for title track “One” reveals her relationship with Ali, which blossomed at The Glee
Project 2 callbacks last year as the two bonded over a shared passion for breaking down stereotypes and remaining positive. It felt only natural to share the life-altering video first with FUN. as both Dani and Ali have been major supporters of the band and their LGBTQ non-profit, The Ally Coalition. Painting a picture of their loving and supportive relationship, you can check out the “One” video where it premiered with The Ally Coalition.
The band Fun. and designer Rachel Antonoff joined forces to create The Ally Coalition (TAC) which works with members of the music, fashion and entertainment worlds to raise awareness and funds in support of LGBTQ equality. Their mission is to create a coalition of allies that will aid and encourage our fellow artists and people from every walk of life, to use their voices and influence to end discrimination against LGBTQ people. FUN. band member Jack explains, “TAC is a place where we as allies can make our statements and make them clear, together. We can use social media to make sure our friends and family hear our words, see our videos and read our posts. Together we can be bigger than hate, ignorance and homophobia and inspire others to look at things a different way.”
The EP opens with new single “One,” with an infectious melody and Dani’s heartfelt lyrics. Led by rich strings and steady percussion, Dani and Ali’s playful take on the classic holiday favorite “Let It Snow” features their intertwining vocals. Rounding out the EP is a brand new version of “Holding On” ~ one of Dani’s earliest and most popular songs on YouTube ~ with its message of hope and strength.
Stay tuned for more from Dani Shay soon, and be sure to pre-order her new EP at www.danishay.com!
