Daniel Monte, emerging from Toronto’s vibrant music scene, is a dynamic artist, songwriter, and violinist who thrives in the chaos of his eclectic alternative pop genre (Hozier, Imagine Dragons).
“Get Some Love” is the 2025 summer pop song in Monte’s discography that dives headfirst into the allure of forbidden desire. As Monte says, “Everyone faces temptation. It’s a part of being alive so why not celebrate that shared experience?” Drawing on tastes like Dua Lipa’s dancing flair and Hozier’s emotive weight, “Get Some Love” is an intoxicating mix of darkness and groove that makes you want to move. The production is polished yet edgy, the mood is sultry, and the message cuts deep. For listeners who crave pop that’s just a little dangerous, “Get Some Love” hits that sweet spot.
With a background as a classically trained violinist, his Italian heritage influence, and his classic rock influences, Monte skillfully blends the rich textures of symphonic elements with the infectious energy of pop-rock, creating exhilarating and memorable musical experiences. He’s been fortunate enough to play festivals and venues internationally (Lilla By Festivalen, Sweden, 2025).
