Who is Dani Thompson?
Dani Thompson (Dani N Thompson a.k.a @danithompsonmusic) is the Founder and CEO of DNT Entertainment; a leader in artist management and development in the music industry. As a wife, mother, business owner, mentor and advocate for gender equality in the music industry, Dani Thompson lives up to her girl boss persona.

Her platform has given a voice to many who would otherwise go unheard, and has helped shape the careers of many up-and-coming artists’ careers.
As the former frontwoman of a promotional band for Fenders’ Kids Rock Free® program in the early 2000’s, Dani built her business on the knowledge and skill set she had acquired from first hand experience as an artist during her high school and college years. She first found her footing on the business side of the industry as a manager, publicist, and music photographer after graduating from Cal State Fullerton in 2010, and her success on an independent entrepreneur level led to the formation of DNT Entertainment in 2014.
