About Me

Hey! I'm a songwriter/producer and record, mix and release my own and other artists projects in my studio based in Bristol. Recent release with Sophie Barker (Zero 7) Link here:
https://songwhip.com/danabel/gold-to-grey
I'm open minded and enjoy a good debate about anything from world issues to best methods for making tea. Basically I enjoy spending time with people from all walks of life!
I've been hosted a handful of times including 8 days in Kathmandu which was an amazing experience and am in Morocco this year from 25th Feb to 5th March so I'm looking forward to some new adventures in music, food and culture.
I'm a quarter Spanish, speak Norwegian and bit French but I'm from the UK originally so I'm naturally a tea addict. I'm also a keen cook and love making all kinds of recipes with my favorites being ones I invent on the way.
Hoping to stay with interesting people while I'm Morocco and happy to pitch in with washing up, general tidying and cooking. I'm very independent and enjoy exploring/traveling alone so I'm not looking for a tour guide per se although you're welcome to recommend places to go and I'd love to hang out too (rather than simply use your home like a hotel)
Anyway, feel free to pop over any questions you might have and look forward to meeting you😊.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Back in 2002 I raised £3000 for cancer research by doing a sponsored haircut. My mum (who had cancer) cut my dreadlocks off in the middle of Bournemouth square on a very busy Saturday afternoon. The last one to come off was attached to a helium balloon and not been seen since..)

Teach, Learn, Share

Amongst other things I can teach music on most instruments and the best ever recipe for hummus!
