DANIELLE EVA SCHWOB

COMPOSER / MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST / PRODUCER

Danielle Eva Schwob is a London-born, classically trained composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist, arranger, and vocalist whose work bridges classical music, soundtracks, rock, and immersive media. Across all genres, she creates immersive sound worlds that lend a cinematic arc to quiet internal experiences.

As the primary artist behind the electronic-rock project DELANILA, her 2020 debut OVERLOADED — co-produced with Grammy-winner David Bottrill (Tool, Muse) — was described by NPR as "a huge record… it really creates a world," while The New York Times featured her self-directed video alongside The Rolling Stones, with Jon Pareles dubbing it "a slice of cabin-induced melodrama." Her 2022 release OUT OF THE TUNNEL (innova Recordings), featuring Grammy nominees PUBLIQuartet and Nathalie Joachim, was named WNYC's "Best of the Week" and accompanied by a visual EP directed by James Mountford. Both albums were spotlighted by Apple Music, Spotify, TIDAL, and Vevo.

In the concert world, Schwob — described by The New Yorker as a "notable cross-genre composer" — has had her compositions performed at venues including Lincoln Center, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, NeueHouse, Fotografiska, and Le Poisson Rouge, and presented by organizations like Chamber Music America, Caramoor Festival, Tanglewood, MATA, Peggy Rockefeller Concerts, and Celebrate Brooklyn! Her music has been commissioned, performed and recorded by ensembles and soloists including The American Symphony Orchestra, Access Contemporary Music, Metropolis Ensemble, American Modern Ensemble, the Harlem Chamber Players, pianists Vicky Chow and Orion Weiss, harpists Ashley Jackson and Bridget Kibbey, and artists on Deutsche Grammophon and Decca. She has collaborated with artists such as Philip Glass, Ben Folds, John Zorn, David Simon, and Johann Johannsson.

Her film, TV, and media credits include scoring credits on PBS's Songs About Buildings and Moods, the documentary Marks of Majesty, the feature How to Follow Strangers starring Ilana Glazer, the short She's Gone starring Jared Gillman, and iHeart's Art Fraud podcast with Alec Baldwin, alongside orchestration work on Darren Aronofsky's mother!, Sky3D/BBC's Conquest of the Skies with David Attenborough, Lionsgate's Indignation and Manhattan Night, the thriller Time of Death starring Michael Kelly and Mena Suvari, the Canadian Screen Award–nominated soundtrack for The Stand, and Kind of a Big Deal on soccer icon Christine Sinclair narrated by Ryan Reynolds. Additional credits include the CBS Democratic Debates, and work for clients like IMAX, Hulu, Mattel, and Google.

In immersive media and dance, Schwob has developed installations and ballets with Crosby Studios (Milan Design Week), Google, Spring Studios, The Brooklyn Tower, and JDS Development, including INFOXICATION, a multimedia performance with choreographer Dusan Tynek and curator Roya Sachs, and other projects at venues such as Mark Morris Dance Center and Gibney. She also served as Assistant Music Director and orchestrator for Shakespeare in the Park's Comedy of Errors, with theatre credits including a workshop of The Pogues' forthcoming stage project Fairytale of New York.

She is a Sundance Institute Composers Lab Fellow, ASCAP Morton Gould Young Composers Award Finalist, and recipient of awards from New Music USA, the Copland Fund, MAP Fund, ACF Jerome Fund, and NYFA, among others. She has held residencies with Atlantic Center for the Arts and Con Edison's Exploring the Metropolis (EtM) program, and her work has appeared at Sundance, San Diego International Film Festival, and LES Film Festival (winning the Prix D'Or), as well as been featured on CNN, NY1, and more.

As a video artist, Schwob has produced, directed, and/or edited sixteen music videos, premiered by outlets like Clash, mxdwn, and Flaunt, and screened at Fotografiska and over 20 film festivals including LA Shorts, Lift-Off Paris, London, and New Renaissance, earning nine awards for Best Music Video, Editing, and Cinematography.

She has guest lectured at CalArts, NYU, and Manhattan School of Music, written for NewMusicBox and The Strad, and serves as a Recording Academy voting member and the Vice President of the Hollywood Radio & Television Society's New York Chapter.
