Music – Chicago

Every once in a while an artist comes along with the ability to move fans out of their seats while creating a visceral experience. Artists of this quality come from undeniable talent and radical authenticity. This is heartbeat of dnk. dnk. is a Nashville based pop/rap group made up of members Kayla Erb, hailing from the Pacific North West, and David Davis, a Chicago-Native. David & Kayla have been at this for a long time. Both being surrounded by 5+ siblings with varied interests, they captured attention by belting out Motown and Jazz classics, performing in church, and always inevitably finding their way to a stage. During their time in Belmont University’s nationally renowned music program, they both trained in various styles and experimented with their artistry. And it was here that they were discovered, and subsequently developed, by an industry executive, Becki DeVries, from Kompass/Kobalt. With a publishing deal locked down with the fastest growing international music company, Kobalt Music, and a handful of songs recorded with respected producer Aaron Sprinkle (One Republic, Anberlin, Eisley), they added a solid live band to bring their sound live to the next level. Together they have exploded on to Nashville’s competitive live scene. After an overwhelming response about their chemistry, they’ve started a journey together, along with award-winning industry reps and producers. Their debut EP was released March 31st, 2014, and they have been touring cross-country ever since.
