"We cannot believe the news ourselves and we know it will be the same for all of you. She gave us so much and we love her so much. Our hearts are broken."
Crazy P did not share a cause of death and told fans they needed time to "process that this has happened". Their touching tribute concluded: "Danielle lived a life driven by love compassion community and music. She lived the biggest of lives. We will miss her with all our hearts X."
The eclectic band was formed in 1995 by Chris Todd and Jim Baron, who met at the University of Nottingham. In 2002, Crazy P expanded to include bassist Tim Davies, percussionist Mav Kendricks - and vocalist Danielle.
They were signed by Mancunian label Paper Recordings and have since released six albums and several singles, with Digging Deeper debuting in 1996. The band also built up a strong fanbase in Australia where they have toured several times.
Danielle also toured with Crazy P at festivals, including Bestival and The Big Chill. She previously spoke of her passion for new music, telling Le Visiteur: "I love listening to new music. I really wish I had more time to really indulge in the seeking and searching. There’s so much great music constantly coming through but there’s also amazing old music that you can’t possibly hear. That’s the brilliance of it."
Following the tragic news of the singer's death, fans flocked to social media to pay their respects. One took to X, formerly Twitter, sharing: "I’m so so so sorry guys. Danielle was a complete ball of light and love .. a force to be reckoned with and one of the most beautiful humans I’ve ever known. Such a huge, mammoth loss. Sending love to you both and thoughts are with her family."
Another said: "I loved that woman so much. She was a such a special person, on and off the stage, but especially off it. Funny, kind, generous, even a little shy, but just an incredible human being. I’m so devastated by this. Much love to you all, this is just the worst news."
