Dayna Kurtz To Perform on WNKU'S Studio 89 Monday Oct. 28

Northport N.Y. - Dayna Kurtz is back from her European tour that took her to Madrid, Amsterdam and London. She is supporting her June release Secret Canon Vol. 2. Dayna will be doing a special show at the A3 station, WNKU in Cincinnati. Click on the photo for more details.


Since the release of Secret Canon Vol. 2 on June 4, Dayna has done a bunch of great interviews. Here's a sampling:

1. Dayna Kurtz on WBGO with host Michael Bourne recorded earlier this month:

2. Earlier in the year Dayna was recorded at Chickie Wah Wah in New Orleans for the syndicated radio program "New Orleans All The Way The Live." The show is an intimate look at Dayna and her music hosted by George Ingmire of WWOZ.

A singer of profound emotional resonance and physical strength, Kurtz is her usual chameleonic self here, seamlessly weaving from the blues to jazz to country soul.
James Reed/Boston Globe

There is a lot of New Orleans in the rhythms of Secret Canon Vol. 2 - See more at: http://www.thealternateroot.com/rack-2/1552-dayna-kurtz-secret-canaon-vol-2#sthash.svjo69gM.dpuf
Dayna Kurtz's Secret Canon, Vol. 2  is a collection of uncovered blues and R&B gems from the 1940's-1960's. Dayna researched music for this project for months to come up with just the right material. In addition, Secret Canon, Vol. 2  contains a few of Dayna's smoky and seductive originals. The sessions for the recording took place in New York as well as Danya's new home in New Orleans.
