Diane Durrett has the cheekiness to title one of her songs Blue
Eyed Soul. But she earns the right on her album Rhythm of Life,
with such songs as the unabashedly funky Don't that Bring You Back
with (complete with Stevie Wonder-style electric piano,) and the
bluesy, gospelish Sweet Savin' Grace, which combines the drama of
a Sarah McLachlan song with Durrett's torchy, velvety delivery.

Make
no mistake about it, Atlanta blues-rocker Diane Durrett is a belter.
There's no trepidation in these vocal chords, and that's immediately
clear.

Shes
been compared to everyone from Gladys Knight to Janis Joplan, from
Aretha Franklin to Melissa Etheridge. But if the truth be known,
there is only one Diane Durrett, and her brand of soulful music
is more than capable of standing alone. The rapidly rising star
is wowing big names in the industry with her bluesy, brassy, belt-it-from-the-depths
delivery, and her original tracks are quickly becoming new soul
favorites.

one big blast of energy.

Durrett, that's who!
