"Diana Jones has a riveting delivery, unadorned and direct – and so true, her stories are so believable, they hang tangible in the air..... the reality of events, of emotions, of what was seen, what was said and what went unsaid is vibrant"
- Americana UK. January 2023
"She sings of the hard times, murderous urges and chilling loneliness that haunt the old Anglo-Celtic ballads ... She approaches the mountain-ballad tradition not as a curiosity or antique but as a renewable vernacular that’s just as capable of speaking to the human condition now as it was 80 years ago"
- Bill Friskics, New York Times
I'd like to redirect you to my 2021 release, Song To A Refugee. Sadly the message is more important than ever. I will donate 100% of the proceeds to refugee organizations.
"...we are all to be merciful to the stranger for we were all once strangers in this land."
- Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde
Reviews - NEW YORK TIMES:
Written from the underside of history, “Song to a Refugee” finds Jones steadfastly siding with the oppressed, much in the spirit of Woody Guthrie’s “Dust Bowl Ballads.”
- Bill Friskics - Warren, New York Times
“Diana’s record is a relentless hammering home of how we ignore a huge body of people who are living through the results of human cruelty and insanity...this is such a big problem that it has to be dealt with in small ways,” Seeger said, referring to the global migration crisis. “But the small ways are not small. This is not a small album.””
- Peggy Seeger, New York Times
Many thanks to everyone who made the 2024 EU and UK Tours so wonderful! New record in the works. See you all before too long...
