Danielle K Gardner

Psalmist, musician, writer/composer/arranger, engineer, producer, and recording specialist are just a few of Danielle K. Gardner’s many talents. Humbled by the fact that God would choose her to carry the weight of the gospel in word, in song, and in instrumental music, Danielle tirelessly endeavors to minister to the needs of the world around her. Danielle has devoted her life to utilizing the gifts and opportunities that God has given to her to challenge others to do the same. In her words, “I am specifically called to minister to the lost that are saved- those who have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ but are unaware of the responsibility of their position in Him.” Thus, she strives to advance the kingdom of God wherever she is, whenever she has the opportunity, and with all that she is.
A Louisville, Kentucky native, Danielle began her musical journey when she began playing drums at age eight. As her curiosity for music grew, she began playing keyboards at age nine, and bass guitar at age 26. To expand her knowledge of music, Danielle attended DuPont Manual Magnet High School and YPAS -Youth Performing Arts School- where her program of study was centered on vocal music, musical theater, and outdoor drama.
