DIANA KARTHAS
Her voice has been called “beautiful and very engaging,” her lyrics “insightful,” and songs “a real achievement in melody and lyricism.” Bottom line: Diana Karthas is a first rate performing songwriter. The proof is in her debut CD entitled, “Step in to the Light,” an intelligent and addictive sounding mixture of rock and pop music.
Diana hails from an artistic family, her mother an artist and her father a skilled classical pianist. Encouraged by her parents, Diana began to hone her guitar skills at the tender age of five, when she began classical guitar lessons with a teacher who would become a lifelong friend and cherished mentor. Two years later, Diana began piano lessons under the tutelage of her kind and patient grandmother, herself a talented and accomplished pianist and violinist. By age seventeen, Diana had developed her vocal style, having founded her school’s first all girls rock band, and having performed at various functions and parties. At Bennington College in Vermont, Diana received formal training in voice, music composition and improvisation. She continued working with bands, lending her musical talents to many performing and recording artists throughout her college years and afterwards. She has worked both with original and cover rock and top 40 bands in New York City, Boston and Vermont, picking up bass guitar along the way, and currently sings and plays bass with a Boston based 80''s cover band, Metro. She also works as a solo artist, sometimes backed by one or two other musicians, playing her original songs at local bars and clubs. Not ironically, Diana is now herself an established and much loved music teacher who is passionate about passing on her guitar and piano skills to the next generation.
Diana’s dream remains to focus on her singing, song writing and guitar playing, and to bring her original music to new audiences, as well as to old fans. Diana continues to write music, and is currently working on new material for her next CD.
