Danni Lee Parpan is a multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter based in Portland, OR. Her latest album, Truth Teller, explores distorted electric tenor ukulele and pushes the boundaries of how instruments are “supposed” to be played. Known for her high-energy live performances and witty stage banter, Danni Lee’s shows have been described as equal parts stand-up comedy and live music. Whether you laugh, cry, or do both, her emotionally charged lyrics will stick with you for weeks. 

In addition to her solo work, Danni Lee is also one half of Ringdown, an electronic cinematic pop duo with acclaimed composer Caroline Shaw. As Matthew Neil Andrews of Oregon ArtsWatch notes, “Parpan’s voice is dynamite–and a perfect complement to Shaw’s.” Together, they create a blend of haunting melodies and innovative soundscapes, and have quickly become a highly anticipated creative force.
