Danielia Cotton
Danielia Cotton (born September 24, 1967) is an American rock singer, songwriter and guitarist from Hopewell, New Jersey. Danielia comes from a musical family. She is the daughter of jazz vocalist Wenonah Brooks and the niece of jazz vocalists Jeannie Brooks and Carol Brooks-Meyners. She is married to Sam Roberts, a New York-based attorney with Legal Aid.
==Early life==
Cotton was raised in the small western New Jersey town of Hopewell, New Jersey, population 2,010.〔LaGorce, Tammy. ("MUSIC PREVIEW; Not Quite Yasgur's Farm, But Close" ), ''The New York Times'', May 28, 2006. Accessed February 15, 2011. "It's also why Danielia Cotton, a blues-rocker from Hopewell, will stomp around with an electric guitar not far from where the Philadelphia techno-dobro artist Slo-Mo will transmit Beck-like musical signals."〕 She was raised, along with three siblings, by her African American/Native American/Caucasian mother, yet never met her Puerto Rican father. A jazz singer by avocation, her single mom supported the family doing accounting work. When Danielia was 12 years old, her mom gave her an acoustic guitar, a prescient move designed to help a daughter find an emotional and creative outlet. She also started harmonizing with her mom and her aunts in a gospel group, the Brooks Ensemble Plus. Growing up as one of only seven black kids in Hopewell Valley Central High School, she was not exposed to R&B and hip-hop. Along with her growing love for rock, Danielia developed a warm appreciation for jazz and gospel. Danielia wound up at the top of her high school class, the first to graduate from the New Jersey School of Performing Arts. Her powerful vocal skills earned her a full scholarship to Bennington College, a storied – and costly – school where the arts were emphasized.〔 Danielia chose to pursue acting there, eventually spending most of her senior year at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London. She doubled up on credits, so she could still study music, taking tutorials with avant garde jazz trumpeter-professor Bill Dixon, who, she says, “really trained my ear.” Acting has had a serious effect on Danielia as shown every time she performs, commanding onstage and off, a natural raconteur as well as a singer.
