Dani Joy is a performing musical artist of Romero Creations who is best known for her ability to weave her crooning alto vocals together with complex campanella fingerpicking accompaniment through original music. For nearly a decade she has been entrancing audiences across the globe, inviting them in with her velvet vocals and compassionate style of teaching. 

Dani Joy has been featured in Ukulele Magazine and several ukulele festivals across the US; Las Cruces Ukesfest, Ukewest, Auburn Ukefest, Midwest Ukefest, Uketoberfest, Napa Wine Country Ukefest, Suncity Ukefest, Porttownsend Ukefest, Kamloops Ukefest and Reno Ukefest.
