Dione Taylor - I Love Being Here with You

Dione Taylor - I Love Being Here with YouCanada has its share of prodigies, including this Saskatchewan native who, at the age of 10, became musical director and organist at her local church. Now in her 20s, Taylor has emerged as a jazz diva worth watching. Her second album, produced by keyboard great Doug Riley, showcases her impressive range, belting out Louis Jordan’s “Knock Me a Kiss” and Cole Porter’s “Just One of Those Things” or delivering a swinging rendition of Prince’s “Nothing Compares 2 U” and her own bluesy “Little Black Dress.”
