Diana Jones
(Nashville TN)

Performance Date

Main Stage:  Monday, May 28

with Jonathan Byrd:  Wed, May 30

2006 Kerrville New Folk Winner!  From the mournful lament of a dance hall girl to a stomping melodic rant featuring her burial instructions, each of her original songs draws life from the rich cross currents of country, blues and mountain music. The result is vibrant, contemporary original music with a gritty and timeless feel.

An accomplished songwriter, Diana honed her skills in the fertile Austin, Texas music scene, where she released her first recording, "Imagine Me" in 1996. The critical acclaim and grass roots following that sprung up around this release caught the interest of Hamstien Publishing, and Diana was signed to a deal in 1997 to record "The One That Got Away", released in 1998. Seeking time to write from an even deeper place, Diana moved to the northeast and continued touring while doing some serious woodshedding in the hills of Western Massachusetts.
