Danny Blu is a queer dark electro-pop act based in New York City. An electrifying, hybrid powerhouse, he bridges the sounds of industrial and pop through "infectious hooks" and serves up an expansive pop exhibition of fashion, video, and art.

Dubbed as an industrial-pop idol, Danny Blu began his journey as a solo act delivering shock-rock performances throughout queer nightlife.

Featured on Alternative Press, Billboard, HBO, The Huffington Post, and NewNowNext; Danny Blu began his journey in 2010 as a solo act with shock-rock performances in queer nightlife leading to the formation of Echo Black. After several North American tours, Blu returned to his roots with a new "intense darkpop sound" in the Billboard Pride debut of 'Bubble'.

With the success of The Pale Horse EP and its companion, PANDEMONIUM, Blu returned to the studio enlisting the talents of producers Walter Kazmier & MORIS BLAK . The sophomore EP, MOLOTOV, features the likes of Aesthetic Perfection and Snowblood and was released on SHVDOW Records in Fall 2022.
