 Valerie Diane is a singer/songwriter originally from Columbus, Ohio- now based in Crystal Beach, Florida. Listing influences such as Enya, Sarah McLachlan, Tori Amos and Loreena McKennitt it is not difficult to see why her music proves so popular among those who have heard it.
Every song has an ethereal, almost spiritual feel to it- thanks largely to her outstanding vocal arrangements- and it is hard not to be touched when listening. Fans often comment on how peaceful her songs make them feel, yet at the same time Val has also branched out into electronic music with collaborations with DJ Riktor and Ataxia, and loses none of her appeal despite the shift in genre.
As well as showcasing her many original songs, Val also likes to apply her talents to covering some of her favourite songs by other artists, both mainstream and independent. A few of these can be found on her DMusic page.
Recently her song 'Living Between Two Worlds' was made into a music video and can be found at YouTube using the following link; http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=tf0PPvsCOIo
Plans for the future include a possible CD release. Given Val's incomparable talent, that will certainly be worth waiting for.
