Daniela Gesundheit holds a BA in music from Wesleyan University, where she focused on South Indian classical voice, experimental composition, and poetry.

She also founded and is currently active with the indie-pop band Snowblink, a duo with Dan Goldman. Snowblink's debut record, Long Live, was named an "essential release" by London's Sunday Times and they have received a NNNN album and performance review from NOW magazine in Toronto. Earlier versions of Snowblink included Andrew Van Wyngarden and Ben Goldwasser of MGMT, artists David Wilson and Frank Lyon, and film critic and archivist Max Goldberg as backup singers. Caley Monahon Ward was also an early collaborator. Daniela is currently a member of the band HYDRA, which includes herself, Feist and Ariel Engle of AroarA. Daniela has been a featured vocalist (alongside Brian Eno) for Owen Pallett on his 2015 album In Conflict, as well as Zammuto's 2014 album Anchor.

She also performed with Michael Ondaatje for Jason Collett's Basement Review (2012) and with members of the Aberta Ballet in 2013 at the Banff Centre. Daniela performed with celebrated acoustic Biologist Katy Payne. This performance placed Payne's lecture discussing her findings about humpback whales and African elephants within an original musical context that involved Daniela and her band Snowblink "to see what they might discover about group identity, distance, competition, innovation, and empathy." The event was staged at the Berkeley Art Museum as part of the exhibition "The Possible" and at The Music Gallery in Toronto.
