Danny Janklow
Danny Janklow continues to be an exciting musical voice, and one of the most in-demand saxophonists of his generation. Danny performs with uncompromising courage, experimental innovation, and provocative imagination while lending the language of Jazz to the grooves of R&B, Funk, and Indie Soul. Danny’s music is searingly personal, and grounded in calls for equal rights, justice, and love.
In early 2021, Danny celebrated a Grammy win for his integral performance on “Monk’estra plays John Beasley.” He has shared the stage with Stevie Wonder, Wayne Shorter, Johnny Mandel, Burt Bacharach, & Herbie Hancock. Janklow contributed iconic solos to Hip Hop recordings such as JID’s “Hereditary” and Earthgang’s “Cocktails” (Dreamville).
Danny’s current projects include producing original music + multi-media, hosting The Creative Hero podcast, performing international tours, & film scoring. His available albums “Elevation", "Worlds Collide", "Love Day Live", and the single "Rising Tide".
