Locked in Life

Still keeping on keeping on, that’s the best we can do really I guess.  Apparently from next week in the UK there will be some easing of the lockdown though it has not yet been stated what will actually be involved. I don’t think for those of us involved in music and performing we are likely to be seeing much of a change anytime soon.  

So I shall carry on writing and recording and hope for a brighter day.  

Bungay Theatre Doors

This is an instrumental version of a song from about 20 years ago with a sort of classical style arrangement.
Do feel free to give it a play.

Hiding In Your Shadow

Diana Stones Songs, glass cage, Musings

If you are enjoying the music

Actually a lot of the music is up beat and optimistic so figure that one out, I wish I could.Perhaps because music takes me to another place that I can not otherwise occupy, or maybe at the best of times opens a doorway for me. I think I have drifted through every musical style in the history of Mankind, ( personkind perhaps, or am I getting a bit Californian ) as I have always been interested in almost every sort of music from pop to the musicals and the classics. 

 

Band/artist history

Almost a band so many times, but now back to being a solo artist with a virtual band. I am looking to put together a live outfit that will play under the name Diana Stone’s Glass Cage as I have musicians that I can borrow occasionally for this when they are not too busy.

Being a multi-instrumentalist it’s difficult often to reproduce the kind of stuff I record in live performance so if if you do get to hear a live version of a Glass Gage song it may sound a little different until cloning is perfected.

 

Musical influences

A little bit of everything just missed being a child of the sixties, so lots of early prog rock, but also a lot of folk, a bit of jazz, and anything slightly of the beaten track.So Sounds a bit like King Crimson and Its a Beautiful day in some places. Any one remember Gong there were great too Also I did not realize but lots of old Hippie music influences too have managed to creep into the melange as well.
