Biography
thumb
Dnash was born on October 4, 1972 in Paris, France and grew up constantly moving, spending most of her childhood in Europe and Indonesia, and relocating to the United States in the mid 1980's. Though perpetually on tour since 2005, she now considers home to be Minnesota.
Music
Dnash began her music career at the age of two as a drummer, played her first paid show at the age of nine, and by the age of fifteen had become an accomplished vocalist, pianist, and MIDI programmer. By her 20s, she had changed from performing and composing, both as a solo artist and in bands, to producing and recording other artists, including Oleg Ginsburg, Recall The Sin, The Doug Wahlberg Band, The Screw-Ups, Brian Kelly, and many others.
As a songwriter, Dnash has always focused heavily on singles rather than full-length albums, as the diversity of her compositions brought accusations of "lack of focus" when compiled together. Like the artists that have most heavily influenced her (Queen and Peter Gabriel), Dnash's music covers a broad spectrum from classical composition to hard rock, rap to country, and everything in between. Her single "You Can't Be" is featured on the soundtrack of the 2007 movie release, Fingerprints.
Dnash was recently cited as a producer on The Screw-Ups' self-titled EP, released April 19, 2013. The production and music received positive reviews from blogs such as Louder Than War.
Custom Fangs
In 1994 Dnash began to experiment in fang making as a side interest, shortly after the movie Interview with the Vampire was released. A year later, she established Teeth By Dnash, a name that has become known in the vampire community (VC) and the body modification world.
Her work has also been featured in films such as the Harry Basil feature Soul's Midnight, as well as the documentary National Vampire which delved into the vampire subculture, a market she has been providing service for since 1995.
As an article in the Daily Beast entitled revealed, sometimes being recognized for one's work can also suggest an authority on matters deeper and darker than art.
