  • Bio

    .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .................... I think I have drifted through every musical style in the history of Mankind, ( personkind perhaps, or am I getting a bit Californian ) as I have always been interested in almost every sort of music from pop to the musicals and the classics, I would love to get into film /soundtrack writing but it is of course like every other part of the music world highly competitive. I am very much a composer, though I play live quite often. At the moment I play live with a band called ..Elephant shelf.. who are quite busy at the moment. I play the ocassional self-penned number and tunes I have co-written with Vicky Martin Leader of Elephant Shelf. I have also started sharing some vocal duties live too.I will also be perfoming more of my own material as Glass Cage live in near future I also used to play with ..lady.. in a previous incarnation as you can see in my slide show. You can hear more of my music here ..www.glass-cage.com.. and at .. www.lovemymusic.com.... I play keyboards, Violin, Guitars, and vocals... I am looking to put together a live outfit that will play under the name Diana Stone's Glass Cage and I have some musicians that I can borrow so hopefully I will be able to do that in the not too distant future. I am also a .. Delta Lady .. I live in Battersea in London by the river, I moved here a long time ago when it was not remotely trendy at all and its OK when the sunshines... The Equipment used on the tracks you are hearing is: Korg 01/Wfd, Korg MonoPoly,(venerable old synth),Yamaha digital Piano and Roland SP 505 sampler,Korg X50 plus other bits and bobs. Guitars of various sorts, electric and accoustic and occasional violin electric and accoustic.. All instruments played by the lovely me of course !.. I am occasionally available for sessions or depping in the London area.
