Danger Danger singer Ted Poley got his start in music as a drummer. Before he owned a drum set he would beat on pillows with drumsticks in his bedroom, and eventually he sold his baseball card collection and bought himself a drum set. The first band in which he really established himself as a drummer was Prophet. After singing during a sound check at a gig in Brooklyn, he was approached by bassist Bruno Ravel and asked to be the singer for Danger Danger. Ted was apprehensive about being a singer but agreed to record some demos for the band. Danger Danger ended up getting a record deal, and Bruno convinced Ted to remain as their vocalist.
Poley: "Danger Danger was a fun, awesome band. We were a cool live band, and all the guys really were awesome live, and that set us apart."
Check out Poley's interview with Rock Scene Magazine from February 2018 below, which was posted on January 5th, 2019.
