delicious Bittersweet
Released on Valentine's Day, the song Delicious Bittersweet celebrates the love of friends.

winter Moon
Dianne Joy explores a new musical texture with Winter Moon. It is the fantasy of a young girl skating with wild abandon on a frosty winter night. In the song-story by Dianne Joy, she is haunted by the moon and mesmerized by the rhythm of her skates. She succumbs to the moon's danger and magic, while the soaring electric violin of Jarred Albright carries her away.

Evidence Blues
The smoky alto of Dianne Joy brings to mind a sultry torch song. Evidence Blues is a cheeky, cynical love song with a fun and easy feel, in 12-bar blues. Jarred Albright provides guitar with a laid-back Chet Atkins vibe and walking bass reminiscent of Van Morrison's Moondance.
