Alabama-bred and Nashville-based, comedian, actress, and content creator Danae Hays represents a fresh female voice in the worlds of comedy, acting, and music. Her cast of zany Southern characters and parody country music songs have propelled her to the top of the Spotify and Apple Music charts, earning her a cumulative following of over 3.6 million and nearly 2 billion views.
Danae’s debut country/comedy single “Rode Hard” peaked at No. 5 on the Country Global iTunes Charts, No. 8 on Billboard’s Country Digital Song Sales, No. 22 on Billboard’s Digital Song Sales, and No. 34 on Billboard’s Emerging Artists. Earlier this year, she wrapped her debut comedy tour, which sold out in minutes.
The tour has since been extended through the end of the year and is transitioning to theaters. Danae and her wife, Mandie Kaii, host a weekly podcast called The Refined and Rowdy Show, where humor, heart, and contrasting perspectives collide as they discuss topics ranging from pop culture to heated issues. Launched in Fall 2023, the podcast recently surpassed 1 million listeners.
True to her multi-hyphenate nature, Danae’s passion for acting has led her to roles in Mother Nature and the Doomsday Prepper (which she recently filmed in Spring 2024) and Summer Camp. Additionally, she has co-starred and guest-starred alongside notable names in entertainment, including Diane Keaton, Kathy Bates, Alfre Woodard, Tanya Christiansen, and Josh Peck.
