Ted Poley of DANGER DANGER

Danger Danger singer Ted Poley actually got his start in music as a drummer. He would beat on pillows around his bedroom with drum sticks, 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. He was asked to be the singer for the band Danger Danger. Ted was apprehensive about being the singer of a band, but agreed to record some demos for the band. Danger Danger ended up getting a record deal, and Bruno convinced Ted to remain as the singer. “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.”
