Countertenor David Daniels Expelled from Singers Union After Guilty Plea

Countertenor David Daniels loses membership in union after guilty plea to sexual assault.

In a stunning turn of events, countertenor David Daniels finds himself on the wrong side of the music industry as he bids farewell to his membership in the American Guild of Musical Artists (AGMA). The reason for this unfortunate departure? Daniels recently pleaded guilty to a charge of sexual assault, leaving his reputation in shambles and his career in limbo.

The 57-year-old musician and his husband, Scott Walters, found themselves entangled in the legal system when they both pleaded guilty to the second-degree felony of sexual assault of an adult. The court sentenced them to eight years’ probation and mandated that they register as sex offenders. A severe blow to both their personal lives and their standing in the music world.
