Danielle – always the humble one – offered up her appreciation for being asked to participate in the project:

Amy Richmond Did an incredible job on the photos, every time she photographs me I fall in love with her work all over again! It is not an easy job as I don’t allow retouching on my photos, so it takes a very special artist to do it just right!

U want to know what my soul looks like….. Listen to this sh!t!

I had fallen in love with all of these songs and feel really blessed to be able to put my stamp on this cd. I am truly inspired by the folks who put together such badd@ss music on the daily! Amazing! Thanks for letting me be a part of this 🙂

And just in case you doubted Danielle’s connection to roots music, here she is with some of her Burlesque le’Moustache gal pals performing on stage with Drive-By Truckers during their recent two-night stand at The Vic in Chicago:

(The song is “Go-Go Boots” from the Drive By Truckers’ album of the same name.)
