   About Dianne Nola
Dianne Nola - poles Dianne Nola is a singer/songwriter/pianist/voice over actor.

When she was 17, she started writing, stopped listening to current music and went backwards in her own private time machine. From the '60s then to the '30s and '40s and for the past few years she's been singin' the blues from the mid '20s. A part of her regrets not knowing about '80s music.

I had to listen to "gray man" about three times. Quite haunting. I love that style of lyric, braiding disparate connections into a fusion of feeling. (so to speak) Ok, I'm jealous. I wish I had written it. ;-)


Oh, and, nice segue to the rubber frog song.

Dianne- Thanks so much for contributing your awesome vocal talents to the collaborative Fabulous Moonpies project. The rest of us- Joe, Chris & Mark- all wish we could sing, and your performance brought the thing to a whole new level. I think the 'Q would be proud!

Hi Diane, I attended someone elses pasta party. If it were my party I would have invited you. We really made the pasta from scratch. It was fun. We made soup,pesto,fat pasta, skinny pasta, ravioli, sauces, etc...I had accepted that invitation before Gary sent out the latke invitations. I'm sorry I missed it. If it had only been on another night.

Hi Dianne, how come you didn't dance last week, or is it I just didn't see you. Did you dance last night? I was too sore(dental work) to dance last night. Thanks for the comment. I'm under the weather, hence the rain jacket pic. Happy day to you
