Born, John Daniel Wiggins II, JDVNL is a soulfully impassioned singer songwriter and visual artist making a name for himself on the stages of the NYC night scene. His distinctly emotive, soul-infused voice is positioning him amongst industry insiders as one to watch. With R&B, gospel, and funk as his core influence, there’s no wonder his music is described as soul stirring. He has a way of masterfully bridging classic soul with the smooth lush style of contemporary R&B. He carefully crafts his lyrics to unfold like beautiful written page-turners; brought to life by the unique timber of his voice. The heartfelt stories he illustrates in his music leaves the listener wanting more. His work calls to mind that of the golden Motown Era, reminiscent of a passionate young Marvin Gaye. Rooted in the rich sound of the past yet standing in the vast eclectically of modern R&B, there’s excitement to see JDVNL grow toward the future.

“I am a creative who uses music, visual art, fashion & design to tell the stories of our generation.”
