But she’ll be back. On Friday no less.
Dani has announced that she’s dropping a new song called “Pretty Bad Reason” that day.
She’s already teased a snippet of the song on Instagram. You can check it out below.
Dani, 31 at the time of her audition, was the very first contestant we met on Season 25 of The Voice.
She turned four chairs and joined Team Chance after wowing the coaches with her rendition of Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive.”
She was eliminated after her knockout round match with Serenity Arce, but sounded anything but defeated in her goodbye Voice post on social media.
“I am all smiles over here and truly beyond grateful for the experience that has been ‘The Voice,’ and everything it has taught me,” she writes in part.
“My passion for music and being an artist was absolutely reignited from this experience and I will spend the rest of my life honoring that part of myself.”
Dani had already released a good deal of music prior to The Voice, including a 2023 single called “Settled on You” that she called her ode to Nashville.
She also released a full version of her Voice audition song in late February. It’s been streamed more than 33,000 times on Spotify.
Dani wasn’t the only four-chair turn to leave The Voice during Monday’s show. Also eliminated was Val T. Webb after a Team Legend knockout round match with Nathan Chester.
She delivered a similar message to her fans.
“Please know that I do not feel defeated,” she wrote. “This is an experience that I got to live out and share all because I did something that I never thought I’d do after being pushed and motivated by my son who thought I belong on world stages and screens.
“That in itself is the honor and win for me.”
