Dani Marine - In Her Own Words. . . I love to sing and grew up learning from my dad, who stood me on a piano bench at a very young age in front of a congregation of people. He played the piano and I sang hymns and gospel music. I've been singing in church ever since. I made trips to Nashville frequently, pursuing a career at it. It wasn't long before I transitioned into country music. It just came naturally and like gospel, the music touched my soul and that's when I sing my best. When I believe in the music and the words that are coming out of my mouth.
I was blessed to meet Darin, now my husband, who encouraged me and continues encouraging everyday to focus on what I love....singing from the heart. Yes, that sounds cliche' but life's too short to waste time doing anything that doesn't have a purpose. I am fortunate to have had many exciting opportunities. I sing the National Anthem for the Detroit Pistons several times a year. The Arizona Son Band and I opened for Reba McIntyre. I, along with Ned Doerr and The Red Ryder Band, have had great moments working with many talented individuals and recently had the opportunity to open for Billy Ray Cyrus. We participated in 99.5 WYCD'sKenny Chesney Beach Bash and we were one of the openers for Clint Black/Dwight Yoakam.
I have recently began to collaberate with the Rob Mills Band. I will be singing original songs that I spent countless hours searching publishing companies for. I worked with songwriters and spent time writing my own songs during many trips to Nashville. I am excited to share these songs! I feel like I'm in a "happy place" with everything in my life today. I may not have the record deal I always thought I wanted (yet) but I have a wonderful family, a loving and supportive husband that I can share my dreams with. I am singing more than ever with very talented musicians and God is blessing me everyday! ! Dani Marine on MySpace

"As I sit here in my living room, surrounded by memories of times past, I see photographs of happier times. I see Justin’s Senior Picture…taken in my dark blue suit and tie, (The tie that I had to tie and that he complained about.) “It’s not me” he said putting it on. . .. Those people that we speak about during ceremonies, parades and speeches, are real people, not distant heroes, Our Heroes. They have real families. They deserve this day. Please honor them for their sacrifices, because at my house… everyday is Memorial Day." Please feel free to share your thoughts inside, on this, and what Memorial Day means to you.
