Music Review - Diane Birch's Bible Belt

As a member of the One2One Network, I recently had the opportunity to review the debut album of Diane Birch!

A little background on the singer: For singer-songwriter Diane Birch, music was a refuge. Although Diane was born in Michigan, her childhood was spent on the move as the daughter of a preacher, living between Zimbabwe, South Africa and Australia, before her parents finally settled in Portland, Oregon. When she was in her early teens, Diane absorbed a unique and cosmopolitan perspective on life that shines through her music and makes a simple categorization of it impossible.

My thoughts on the album: The result? Diane Birch sounds like an old favorite, with all the sparkle and magic of a breakthrough talent. From the opening track “Fire Escape” to the closing “Magic View,” Diane’s stunning voice is mesmerizing.

Several songs sounded like they had a gospel influence and there was a good variety of upbeat and relaxing music. I didn't know what to expect from this new artist but I look forward to hearing what she comes up with in the future. I also really appreciate singer-songwriters because their music usually suits their own voice perfectly, as is the case with this collection. I have enjoyed this album and would recommend it to friends.

Her debut album, Bible Belt, was released on June 2! If you haven't already listened, you should!
