Dee Dee
“My name is Delia, but I go as Dee Dee.” I was named after my maternal grandmother, Delia Drinkard, carrying the proud heritage of my family’s deep musical and gospel roots right from the start. I was born in New Jersey on September 25th – in what I always love to call ‘a very good year!’ Music is my life, my soul, and my greatest journey. Welcome to my world, and thank you for keeping the music alive.
“Dionne sings taut, like a doubled-up fist. I’m more relaxed in my singing, even though it is strong. I don’t think I want to tighten up like that, to reach the pitch she has to reach mentally. If I start to do that, it may influence me – I might start sounding like her. I have my own sound. I just want people to know it when they hear it.”
She is an avid swimmer and likes to drive fast. She at one time studied commercial art, but left that field for performing arts. She dresses casually off stage but her performance gowns are designed by John Bestiny. Dee Dee has Pomeranian named “Cruz” for a constant companion.
