Skillfully mixing blues and Americana, Danielle Miraglia comes armed with a strong steady thumb on an old Gibson, an infectious stomp-box rhythm, harmonica, and tunes ranging from heartfelt to socially conscious. She started out as a blues picker, then a rocking electric guitar player in a band, and now focusing on solo acts that highlight both her instrumental and vocal skills and her musical storytelling.

“Straddling the line where folk/roots meets rock/blues, Miraglia has a voice that can go from a raspy come-hither purr to an Etta James-esque powerhouse belt, although she may be best known for her lead thumb — a heavy, thumping strike on her Gibson that’s backdrop percussion in itself.” Lauren Daley, The Boston Globe

“Danielle Miraglia is like a musical butterfly who’s been granted many metamorphoses.”  www.daniellem.com
