A graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University’s Jazz Studies program, Daniel has gone on to perform and record all over the world. His playing has been heard everywhere from The White House to the Opening Ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Olympics. Daniel’s eclectic and prodigious musicianship can’t be contained by one specific genre. His ear for quality has made him a sought after collaborator by artists such as k.d. lang, The War on Drugs, and countless others spanning all genres. He released the 7” single “Diamonds” on Pax Am in 2015. Daniel also serves as the Music Director for SPARC’s Live Art, a program at the leading edge of arts education, integrating performing arts curriculum with special education to create a unique and powerful program for students of all abilities.

“Pianist Daniel Clarke’s greatest asset may not be his talent, which is prodigious, or his charm, which is substantial. His not-so-secret appeal is the genuine, borderline-inspirational joy he takes in [collaborating with] others.” – Style Weekly

“’Diamonds’ is a pristine document of Clarke’s soul and R&B influences, making for an unforgettable listening experience.” – Diffuser
