“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. A Memphis reporter once wrote that Diane’s performance was so powerful that “If you don’t go see her she may just come see you!” With a blend of raw soulful vocals, sultry tones and strong original songs Durrett has sung with Sting, The Indigo Girls, Gregg Allman, Chuck Leavell (Rolling Stones) and Peter Stroud (Sheryl Crow).  Durrett has opened shows for Tina Turner, Faith Hill, Little Feat, Delbert McClinton and Derek Trucks. In 2010 she was chosen by Grammy award winning producer Brendan O’Brien to record supporting vocals on Faith Hill’s upcoming single.

Durrett has long reflected the musical passions that inspired her while growing up in Atlanta, GA. From her energy-driven breakthrough debut 50,000 Volts of Soul (1993) to her superbly executed Rhythm of Life (1998) to her acoustically-driven CHILL (2004), to the LIVE CD, Georgia On the Groove (2007), to her latest release produced by Ike Stubblefield entitled Blame It On My DNA (2009).  Her song catalogue includes co-writes with the likes of Jerry Ragovoy (Piece of My Heart), Emily Sailers (Gallileo), Kristen Hall (Baby Girl), Bonnie Bramlett (Superstar),  and William Bell (Born Under A Bad Sign). Durrett’s songs and voice are well received in films and advertising as well. "What If Everybody Wins" was selected for the film, "The Unseen" broadcast on BRAVO and distributed by BLOCKBUSTER. Diane lent her vocal talents to a major ad campaign for Ford. With co-writer Jayne Olderman, She sang and co-produced songs for Primerica, The American Cancer Society and The Kroger Corporation.  Durrett continues her musical expedition towards defining her soulful voice and creating colorful songs.

Durrett’s love for songwriting expanded into storytelling when she authored her first memoir, Driving Music City.  DMC is a collection of true stories and song lyrics primarily about her experiences as a limo driver in Nashville, Tennessee, as well as highlights from her singing career while earning a place on Music Row as a singer/songwriter. Durrett chauffeured some of the greatest stars in the pop and country music industry.  She gives readers an insider’s view of the off-stage personalities of some our favorite celebrities including Steven Tyler, Elton John, Vince Gill, Chet Atkins, The Rolling Stones, Courtney Love and so many more.

On the horizon for 2010 Durrett launches her artist development company Blooming Tunes.  The company’s primary focus is music production, songwriting workshops and voice instruction.  Blooming Tunes first release is sixteen-year-old singer/songwriter Julie Thames CD Say Yes co-written and produced by Durrett.

Durrett is a down-to-earth-diva. She sings from her soul, writes with heart & humor. Diane brings her southern wit and charm to every event. She's pure entertainment!
