Bio:
Dyana Jean’s Philadelphia-style R&B is infused with Eastern spirituality for an innovative sound on her second album, Om. A Philly native, with some serious jazz, rock and dance roots, Dyana Jean’s music reveals incredibly personal, yet universal stories that’ll take you on a Tantric trip through all phases of life and love. Dyana is a self-taught music/video producer and DJ, with radio host experience. She has a master’s degree from Columbia University: Union Theological Seminary, NYC. Dyana’s spiritual studies are the perfect credential for her latest projects. Her recent songs are characteristically deep, spiritual and personal, weaving introspective, self-reflective lyrics throughout the tracks. While the new music is thematically Eastern, the sound reflects Dyana’s jazz and dance roots as well as her skill as a “musical mixologist”. Dyana’s theological background as both student and teacher are prevalent throughout the new group of songs. She reaches a wide audience with her down-to-earth vulnerability and smooth, pleasurable beats. New tracks include Om, Peace of Mind, Tranzendental, Butterfly, Nirvana, Yin, East of the Sun and BuddaLove, featuring her younger brother Andrew as co-composer and guitarist. Dyana Jean’s “Papa Sam” was none other than West Philly’s Sam Cocchia, lead guitarist for the Mike Pedicin Band, a Rock n Roll band before the term was coined! The Band, signed to RCA Victor a year before Elvis, backed-up Frank Sinatra when he was in town. Sam’s eldest daughter and Dyana’s mother, Donna Jean (the second-eldest of nine), got the music genes, but her talent evinced through jazz. Named Best Female Jazz Vocalist for Best of Philly 1978, Donna Jean belted jazz standards at spots such as the Borgia Café and PT’s and, in 1983, she performed at the Academy of Music with the Bob Cohen Trio. She taught Jazz Voice Performance at the Esther Boyer College of Music at Temple U for 17 years.
