Indie Music Women’s Artist of the Day is…

Deanne Wheeler (@deannewheelermusic)

Deanna Wheeler is a California native-turned-ATX siren. She is a USAF Veteran with an incredible story of survival. Musically, her vocal style melds the sounds of a fiery gypsy and classic rock ballads. Deanna commands the stage, armed with leather & lace, and a powerhouse vocal. As a singer/songwriter, her lyrics are inspired by a fight-or-flight Wounded Warrior attitude. There’s no missin’ that fire when she crosses your path.

Upcoming: UK Tour February 2020 & New Album 2020

Deanna shared with me what it means to her to be an indie music woman artist:

“Being an Indie Music Woman means, “Indie” means that no one is backing you, this is your passion, this is 100% you. It’s the freedom to invoke emotion the way you want to without anybody telling you what to do.”

You can hear Deanna’s single, “Through the Fire” on the Indie Music Women’s Spotify playlist.
