| About DIANE SHAW |
|
Once described as the 'most famous unknown singer' in the UK, Diane Shaw has, in her career probably performed in front of more people than most of the singers in the pop charts today.
Diane is being heralded the freshest thing to hit the UK Soul scene in years, bringing an enthusiasm and energy rarely seen on stage today.
After a decade of performing her famous Motown show at glitzy venues all over the UK & Europe, for celebrities and dignitries alike, Diane is now turning her efforts towards going back 'to her musical roots'.
Having grown up with 60's and 70's soul scene, Diane has been busy re-recording and re-making a host of Motown, Northern and Modern Soul classics, and songs that inspired her to become a professional singer from an early age.
From the dynamic and emotive ballads of the likes of Gladys Knight, Aretha Franklin and Dorothy Moore, venturing into Northern classics from the likes of Martha Reeves, Tammi Terrell, The Elgins and the Velvelettes, ending up with the whole room on their feet dancing to a tribute to the classics of Motown including The Supremes, The Vandellas and even her own versions of classics from the likes of the Four Tops, and the Isley Brothers It’s true that Diane’s show has something for everyone.....
Her career has taken her all over the UK, Europe, and the World, and performs anywhere from intimate parties, cabaret shows and weddings of as little as 50 people, to outdoor festivals as well as soul allnighters and weekenders for audiences of thousands.
In her latest CD - 'SOUL SEARCHING', due for release 2008, Diane takes a step back into her musical roots, reviving the sounds of classic Motown, Northern and Modern Soul.
'Love makes a woman' is a small taster of the coming release, where she reworks and revitalises a classic tune from 1968 by soul singer Barbara Acklin.
