Dana Benedict is a Los Angeles–based singer-songwriter whose piano-driven original songs blend folk influences with subtle gothic and cabaret elements. Her music is built around memorable melodies, emotional storytelling, and a strong connection with audiences, resulting in live performances that are engaging, polished, and real.

Rooted in a lifelong journey through music and multidisciplinary performance, from early theatre training on a national Broadway tour to global studies in non-traditional movement theatre and clowning, Dana brings a rich artistic perspective to every show. Her work has been featured in theatrical settings, short films, and immersive environments, reflecting a creative ethos that bridges sound, story, and visual imagination. She was recently mentioned in Forbes for her performance of Smells Like Teen Spirit for an immersive theatre production.

Dana has also developed Alchemy & Poetry, an immersive theatrical extension of the same songs, presented selectively alongside her live music career.

A musical journey through ethereal realms of whimsy, folklore, and personal tales. All original music written and performed by Dana Benedict, backed by a full band, featuring dancers, aerial art, and stunning visuals.
