Somewhere There's a Song Still Singing (single)

This song celebrates deep, old-tyme connection between people and land and songs. We have an old saying in English, "I have to get the lay of the land,” and I understand the lay of the land to mean, the song of the land. And so we continue to sing, to the land, for our people, for all people, as if our lives depend on it, because in some ways, they do!

Turn Toward the Sun (single)

Turn Toward The Sun was written for Geraldine Mcmanus and the buffalo of Standing Rock. Diane met Geraldine during a very brief visit to the Standing Rock Water Protectors' camp in October 2016, while on tour with then-new Teach, Inspire, Be Real cd. When they met again about 8 months later, Dakota woman, Geraldine, asked Diane to write a song that would tell the story of the buffalo coming to sacrifice themselves for the people and the water at Standing Rock. Geraldine spoke for 3 hours, telling Diane about the vision she had during a healing session and then how the buffalo came to Standing Rock during the fall, and then again in the winter. The song tells it, but only 8 or 9 water protectors were there that deep winter day when Geraldine's vision came true and the buffalo came to help. The story of this great gift is going out as we sing and tell and re-member the infinite generosity of noble buffalo who somehow knew there was going to be bloodshed at the confluence that day.
The whole world is watching.
Water is Life.
