Sizzling Powerhouse
Listening to Donné will leave you completely altered…forever.
Compared to the likes of Nina Simone, a sober Winehouse, a mature Duffy, Cat Power, and of course the unmistakable Shirley Bassey, she is best known for her ability to not just sing songs but to embody them in their entirety. Donné’s talent is as apparent on record as it is on stage. She has the training and discipline of a jazz maestro, yet under direction she knows precisely when to bend and when to take the work of others to new, unexpected levels. As the late, great Jackie Orzacsky once quipped: “She is raw”.
Having just completed a covetable E.P. with renowned Australian producer Tony Buchen, the collaboration has resulted in one bandwagon you can’t afford to miss. Here you have that old-school sound with a gritty edge. Cinematic and evocative,
her pieces traverse the full spectrum of emotional possibility. This singer is both fine and outrageous, tender and volatile, vulnerable and truly in her power.
