Bio
Deanna Smith Scotland decided she wanted to be a singer when she was eight years old. Growing up in a house that was filled with music, she learned to appreciate and love a wide range of singers and songs. She was in fact the only kid in her sixth grade class who knew the words to more than one of Nat "King" Cole's songs and maintains that while it made her a better musician it did not help her win the sixth grade popularity contest. Deanna sang all through high school and into college, and spent a number of years in her church choir before picking up a microphone and later a guitar. She made her professional debut with Milwaukee based celtic band "Free Whiski", and later joined "Mystery Train" where she honed her skills singing rock-n-roll and blues. In 1998, she met a drummer in a bar (who hasn't?) and set off down a new road. Celtic Rock band "Jiggernaut" was formed in 1999, with Deanna as the female lead vocalist. In 2002, she moved from Milwaukee to Fort Worth Texas, where in addition to performing with Jiggernaut, she re-formed "Free Whiski" as an Americana/Folk band. She continues to amaze audiences with her skills not only as a vocalist, but also as a songwriter... .. .. ...... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. -

Sounds Like
Hopefully I sound most like myself. However, people do say that I sound like Janis, or sometimes Stevie Nicks. On the other hand, Jiggernaut, sounds like a hell of a lot of fun!

STATE TO STATE
(TUNE:

C F F F)
From Sydney Town,
In uni. break,
I drove out west
To earnings make
Onion picking,
On the fields
Of Echuca,
That year’s yields.
After day’s work,
From Y.H.A.,
A group of us
Would not delay
To walk on down
To the dirt rim
Of the Murray,
For a cool swim.
On one such day,
I do declare,
Some three of us
Had a big dare
To swim across,
From state to state,
The wide Murray -
I took the bait.
Yes, foolishly,
I took the bait -
A choice that I
Would come to hate,
For I almost
Did drown that date,
Making the swim
From state to state.

Poem 187 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(see my blog for details): A SOUTH SHIELDS WALKABOUT - AUTUMN 2001
Out of the museum-and-gallery
(Wiser on Cookson and the local way),
Down Ocean Road with, to the right of me,
Its eateries and, left, neat places to stay;
Before, on either side, Marine Parks -
The southern-one a most beautiful place,
Teeming with moorhens, swans, grebes and mallards
In a small lake at a scenic-hill’s base.
Then (holding chips from the parade’s cafe
And, thus, a flock of gulls squawking above)
Onto the South Pier I made my way:
Seeing seaweed over rocks - like a glove -
And high-and-dry sands held from transgression
By growth of grass and the weaving of wood,
Plus, in the dim light of a sleepy sun,
Fishing boats returning to Tynemouth’s hood.

Poem 230 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(see my blog for details):
CHRISTMAS SUNG SIMPLY
As gospellers have said,
Beneath signalling skies,
On land dusty to tread,
A trough in a stable
Was the strawy first-bed
Of a divine baby -
The forgiving Godhead.
A season for new hope -
There then and here now;
The yuletide of goodwill -
There then and here now.
In respect of this chance,
Beneath bright or dark skies,
Faith's the star that we glance
Attending Christ's churches
And trying to enhance,
With singing and ritual,
Our God-loving stance.
A...

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog):
TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare;
Sea, country and works scent the air;
A multitude of monuments,
Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls;
The remnants of defensive walls;
Historic buildings are a gauge
Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields;
Estuaries guarded by shields;
Long sandy beaches and wide scenes;
Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees,
Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries,
And crossed by practical delights -
Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham;
Football kits ad infinitum;
Kept castles - one for study;
Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way,
It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
(C) David Franks 2003
