Diane Cluck

Spinning on Air | Jun 15, 2012

Refreshing, startling, and also engaging, Diane Cluck is an artist willing to explore the frontiers of song, and occasionally report back to us what she discovers there. Diane uses the usual songwriter tools of words and music, and voice and guitar, but somehow her songs are very unusual. They manage to inspire new ideas and perceptions, with unique perspectives providing revealing insights. She first visited Spinning On Air in 2004, and now Diane Cluck returns to perform some new songs with drummer Anders Griffen and vocalist Abbey Todras, and to talk about the songs with host David Garland.
