ABOUT THE PERFORMER

Danielle Ponder and the Tomorrow People

Named one of the “Top Ten Bands to Watch” by CityPaper, and winner of the 2016 and 2017 Roc Awards, “Best Local Band”, Danielle Ponder and the Tomorrow People transcend musical genres with a blast of deep, powerful groove and soul. The band is the groove while Ponder’s pipes keep it rooted in soul. And according to Ponder, soul is more than a sound. “Soul music is something you feel,” she says. “It gives you goose bumps.” This Rochester, NY Native has spent the past several years rendering goose bumps by perfecting her style and charismatic performance. She sings, you listen, you melt. The result of her focus and dedication is a tone that is both enchanting and seductive along with a riveting, honest stage presence. It is this voice that has helped her secure gigs opening up for powerhouses such as George Clinton, Ledisi and The Roots.  The band has also completed two successful European tours. Boyd Kletter of Bourbon Street Blues Club in Amsterdam said “Danielle shines bright both on and off the stage. She’s truly is a star!”
