Danny Worsnop

Danny has had his issues with alcohol addiction and substance abuse. He had appeared in an inebriated state in a live event by ‘Asking Alexandria’ in 2011. After this incident, Danny sought professional help and started his rehabilitation process.

He is a close friend of Tom Kershaw, a professional tabloid journalist. Danny and Tom studied at the same school and even played musical instruments together for a band called ‘The Element.’

Danny is active on social media as he often posts pictures and videos on platforms like Instagram and Twitter. While his Twitter page has more than 639,000 followers, his Instagram account has more than 179,000 followers.

Danny Robert Worsnop was born on September 4, 1990 in Beverley, England. He was raised by his parents, Sharon and Philip, and spent his childhood in a small village called Gilberdyke. He was brought up along with his younger sister, Kelly.

Danny was always interested in music. As a toddler, he would create beats using pots and empty boxes. He started playing musical instruments by the time he was eight and even attended violin classes at a young age.

Since he was good at creating music, Danny had no problems learning various other instruments. While attending his violin classes, he also picked up the nuances of playing the trumpet and later found himself playing for his school’s band.

He was influenced by rock and metal music during his teenage years and started learning guitar and bass. Though he initially wanted to serve in the military as a sniper, he changed his mind and continued with his musical journey when his band’s debut album went on to become a massive success.

Danny Worsnop joined the band ‘Asking Alexandria’ in 2008. He and his band members came up with their official debut album ‘Stand Up and Scream’ in 2009. Produced by Joey Sturgis, the album was released under ‘Victory Records’ and ‘Sumerian Records.’

Though the album did not perform well in the United Kingdom, it did excel in the United States. While it found itself a spot on various music charts across the United States, it claimed the fourth place on ‘Top Heatseekers,’ issued by Billboard magazine.

‘Asking Alexandria’ released its second album titled ‘Reckless and Relentless’ in 2011. The album, released by ‘Sumerian Records,’ broke into the top 10 positions of various music charts across the UK and the US. It also appeared on the ‘Australian Albums Chart,’ where it claimed the 30th spot.

In 2013, the band released its third album ‘From Death to Destiny,’ which claimed the top position on the ‘Top Hard Rock Albums.’ It also performed extremely well in the UK and Australia, handing ‘Asking Alexandria’ its most successful album in terms of monetary gains.

On January 22, 2015, Danny shocked his fans by announcing his dissociation with the band. He stated that he no longer wanted to make heavy music and that the decision was taken after considering what is best for the band. Danny Worsnop was then replaced by Denis Stoff as the band’s main vocalist.

Apart from working with bands like ‘We Are Harlot’ and ‘Asking Alexandria,’ Danny has also collaborated with many other bands. In 2010, he lent his voice for the song ‘Wake the Dead,’ which was part of the metal band, ‘With One Last Breath.’ In the same year, he also collaborated with Bizzy Bone for his song ‘Automatic Rewind’ from the album, ‘Crossroads: 2010.’

In 2012, he collaborated with three bands, namely ‘I See Stars,’ ‘Suicide Silence,’ and ‘Memphis May Fire.’ In 2014, he lent his voice for the song ‘Sellouts,’ which was part of the American duo Breathe Carolina’s hit album, ‘Savages.’ In 2018, he joined hands with the American metal band ‘The Word Alive,’ which featured him in the song ‘Stare At The Sun’ from the album, ‘Violent Noise.’
