Weitere Informationen vom Distributor:
During 2004 at age 65 singer / songwriter Claude Diamond released his debut CD "Diamond Dust" on the Vettset label. The CD reached #21 on the Roots Country airplay chart and # 51 on the Americana chart. Now he's released his second album "Highway of Life".

"Highway" includes eleven original Americana / roots songs and is a diverse mix of musical styles including bluegrass, Cajun, blues and country. In the manner of Billy Joe Shaver and John Prine, he writes and sings about the realities of life using both humor and sadness to tell his unique stories.

Claude writes and performs the music you wish you could hear on mainstream country radio, but can't. If you're looking for some great original stories written in a fresh style, you'll love this album! Some are funny, some are sad and all are a pleasure to hear. Once you start listening you'll keep riding until the highway ends.

Claude started performing during the late 1950's in Mississippi honky tonks around Natchez and Hattiesburg. During those years he played rockabilly and blues. After graduating from college in 1960 he put the music dream on hold. Then in 2004 he decided to bring out his debut CD of original Americana / Roots Country music. He currently performs acoustic shows primarily in the Atlanta, Georgia area.
