“She’s good. She’s damn good.” Sting’s summation of his duet with singer songwriter Diane Durrett speaks for anyone who’s ever heard her perform. Diane has opened for Faith Hill, Patty Loveless, Tina Turner, Delbert McClinton, and Derek Trucks, and lit up Atlanta in a “Stormy Monday” duet with Gregg Allman.
Durrett has long reflected the musical passions that inspired her when growing up in Atlanta, Georgia. From her energy-driven breakthrough debut “50,000 Volts of Soul” (1993) to her superbly executed “Rhythm of Life” (1998) to her most recent release, “CHILL,” Durrett has continued her musical expedition towards defining her soulful voice and creating colorful songs.
Diane spent five years earning her education on Nashville’s Music Row. Her co-writers include Bonnie Bramlett (Superstar), Jerry Ragovoy (Piece of My Heart) , Jimbeau Hinson (Party Crowd) , and Georgia Music Hall of Famer William Bell (Born Under A Bad Sign). She has received accolades in Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany for her song “Take Me As I Am,” which is featured on the soundtrack of the film “Ready, Willing, and Able”. In 2004 the American Cancer Society selected Diane’s acclaimed song from “CHILL”, Whatever Makes Your Soul Sing co-written with Jayne Olderman, as the theme of a nationally distributed DVD. In 2005 “What if Everybody Wins” was selected for the soundtrack for the film “The Unseen” which will be released in 2006.
Durrett was once quoted as saying, “I want to write songs that reach across generations and bring people together.” With “Rbythm of Life and CHILL,” her legacy will always live on.
