The Musebox today announced that Australia’s sweet and soulful new export, Dioni, has released the lyric video for her new single, “Don’t Let Me Down.” According to a recent review by O Kosmos, Dioni is Blessed
with a heavenly voice and shows her masterful use of a massive range
while incorporating warm, beautiful lows and powerful, honey-dipped
highs."
Compared
to ’60s icons Dusty Springfield and Sandie Shaw, the renaissance woman
from Sydney has traveled extensively throughout Greece, performing in
ancient theatres and stadiums in support of bands such as Faithless,
Soft Cell, and The Chemical Brothers. Dioni has performed as a solo
artist in Australia, France, Germany, Greece, and Qatar. She has a
multilingual repertoire (including seven languages) and the ability to
sing in multiple genres. More information on Dioni and the upcoming May
19 launch of her new EP is available on her official site.
After
obtaining her Mass Communications degree from Macquarie University and
being admitted as an associate of the Trinity College of London, Dioni
studied at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music before setting off for
Athens. After further study at the Conservatorium of Pireaus, she
embarked on an eclectic musical journey throughout the world.
In
2001, Dioni co-founded her group Astyplaz, of which she is still the
lyricist and vocalist. She soon caught the attention of veteran promoter
Gilles Petelle, formerly of BMG Canada. Dioni played around the world,
including Quebec City and Montreal, where her label Chic Vinyl Records
is based. She has since released two albums, Name Your Slippers and Bi,
with Astyplaz (Universal and EMI, respectively), and a third
collaborative EP. Dioni has also had tracks featured in numerous
compilations, including the internationally recognized Buddha Bar XI series.
Dioni
has worked voluminously as a voice-over artist, contributing her
mellifluous voice to animated film, television jingles, documentaries,
video games, and educational videos. Integrating strong theatrical
elements in all her shows, Dioni has been particularly influenced by
Bertolt Brecht, Theatre of the Absurd, and German Expressionism.
Charity
is close to Dioni’s heart. She has participated in various events,
including the International Red Cross and a UNESCO concert for the
International Day of Peace. Dioni was present for the Special Olympics
of 2011, and enjoyed entertaining the Australian athletes in the
presence of Tim Shriver.
Dioni
is currently working on a solo album that is due to be released in the
coming months. She will soon announce tour dates for her one-woman
eclectic multimedia musical, Ode to a Crisis. The show debuted in front of a sell-out crowd at The Factory Theatre in Sydney in June 2014.
