Dani Siciliano

Prior to making a name for herself as Matthew Herbert's key collaborator, vocalist/producer Dani Siciliano played in jazz combos and spun soul, funk, and jazz records in San Francisco clubs.

A meeting with Herbert resulted in the two working together and eventually they wed. It's Siciliano's lilting voice that graces the likes of Herbert's "Going Round" (1997) [from album "Around The House" (1998)], along with "Leave Me Now" (2000) and "Suddenly" (2000) [both from album "Bodily Functions" (2001)] – three of the richest, danceable avant-pop singles of the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Other outside collaborations with Brooks and fellow Herbert accomplice Phil Parnell were sprinkled throughout the early 2000s.

A little later in the decade, she released a pair of solo albums for the German Studio !K7 label. "Likes..." (2004) and "Slappers" (2006) both involved Herbert, but the albums were definitely her shows, and she was also featured throughout her partner's "Scale" (2006).

For several years, new Siciliano recordings were scarce, but she was featured on DJ Koze "Amygdala" (2013) and later joined the Paris-based label undefined, where she released her predominantly self-produced third solo album, "Dani Siciliano" (2016).

Previously married to Matthew Herbert.
