Daneshevskaya

Announcing her North American tour with Black Country, New Road, Daneshevskaya also unveils her new single and video for ‘Somewhere In the Middle’.

Anna Daneshevskaya Beckerman, the songwriter behind Daneshevskaya, draws inspiration from her Russian-Jewish background, which is reflected in her artist name, a tribute to her great-grandmother’s last name.

The video that accompanies the song, directed by Mia Duncan, shows homemade footage of Beckerman and his friend Madeline Leshner, who also plays keyboards in Daneshevskaya’s live band.

“My grandma had two sisters and her parents would say ‘Anita has the looks, Miriam has the books, and Gloria has the charm.’ I used to think about which one I would want to be. I never questioned having to choose.”

Daneshevskaya’s music is compelling and reticent, leaving listeners desiring more from the New York based artist.

‘Somewhere In The Middle’ is out now on Winspear.
