Reunited…and it feels so good

by Deanna Knight on March 14, 2023

I’m beyond thrilled to have the outstanding intuition, heart and soul of George Koller joining me once again in the studio. This time honouring my second collection of songs for a 2023 release. His magical talent was such a blessing on my 2001 release Shadow of a Star. I had hired him for one day in the studio and he ended up staying on right to the completion as co-producer with me. So very very grateful.

I can hardly believe the #dreamteam coming together to join me in the studio.
More on that soon!

Playing around with new branding

by Deanna Knight on March 13, 2023

For many years I have used the same branding for the songwriting side of my career.

My first solo record only had a capital D on the front with my full name on the spine.
I have been told over and over that my full name is just lovely so…I’m trying something new.
I figure with a last name like Knight…it might be fun to play with that a little.

An ever evolving musical journey. Excited for this next chapter!

These Lovelies are so Gooood!

by Deanna Knight on June 17, 2022

Wow – we sure enjoyed our sold out show with The Good Lovelies at St. Bart’s June 14th.
These beautiful women are so darn talented. I got to know each of them a little better as we hosted them at our B&B for a couple nights and I can’t wait for the next time.

I was thrilled to warm up our full house alongside Anna Lumiere on piano.
Thanx to the Sunshine Coast for being so supportive of the arts!!
A great night all around.
