Emmy Daniels is a New York based actor, singer/songwriter, and 1/3 of the producing team at Cornerstone Creative Co. Born and raised in small town St. Joseph, IL, she began her performance journey in the third grade and couldn’t stay off the stage ever since.

With a deep love for alt, pop, rock, and folk music, she was thrilled to be cross trained classically, receiving her BM in Music Theater at Oklahoma City University.  

Being both Christian and queer, she saw a deficit in spaces that allow artists to bring both the fullness of their religious expression and also the fullness of their personhood.  Thus, with two like minded friends, Cornerstone Creative Co. began, wherein she, Torie Brown, and Haley Keizur regularly produce 54 Below shows such as their annual “Make it Gay: A Pride Celebration!” 

Cornerstone is a part of her mission to bridge the divide that exists between both the queer and Christian communities through storytelling.  Through music. Through the creation of artistic spaces where people are removed from the often overbearing, unspoken pressure to omit pieces of themselves in order to belong.  All are welcome, always, and she means that.

As an individual artist, Emmy enjoys writing lyrics at coffee shops and bringing them shape at her piano. Her first single release “Werewolf” is available for streaming on all platforms!
