Dana Rice comes from all-day-Sundays in MS spent singing Gospel Music in church and listening to preachers “hoop” while men and women dressed to the nines waved handkerchiefs yelling, “Say That” and “Preach, preacha!” It is against this backdrop that she received her introduction to the arts complete with all the drama, music, and dance that anyone could imagine. As a singer/songwriter, author, arts educator and creativity coach based in Metro Atlanta, Dana helps people discover and develop their artistic voice by enticing, exposing and illuminating the Gift – welcoming it to step forward – making it feel comfortable and confident to achieve Big Dreams. Dana enjoys creating songs that encourage us to celebrate life’s moments, stay hopeful, and pursue our dreams. Her favorite genres are gospel, jazz, soul, and spoken word. You'll here hints of legendary artists like Nina Simone, India Arie, and Aretha Franklin in her sound to name a few. When you’re in need of a little soulful solace, that's a good time to stream one of my songs. While Dana's sound may not exactly be what you're used to hearing, but you're up for a new musical experience, right?
