(PRWEB) September 29, 2006 -- Eclectic pop rock artist Krista D is a feisty, unique and creative singer/songwriter that is about to release her new album Jane’s World. With comparisons to early Juliana Hatfield and Veruca Salt, the first single “Extraordinary” has already spent 2 weeks at #1 on CFAI FM charts above bands such as AFI and The Goo Goo Dolls and will be released to Hot AC radio stations nationally in October.
Although Jane’s World is not Krista’s first full length, it is the first album she feels she had total control of. At 16, Krista’s father discovered her talent for singing and songwriting and believed in her enough to take her to the recording studio for her to record her first album. In spite of not having any plans of releasing or marketing that album, Krista found her songs getting serious airplay on Moncton’s CKOE 100.9 FM and she became the number one requested artist.
At 24, Krista began producing the follow up album Jane’s World at Pumpk’n Patch Studios in Riverview, NB. She enlisted help from local guitar hero Chris Colepaugh who did most of the guitars on the album and all the bass. Colepaugh even offered help with song structuring and creative direction, most notably on "Penny for your Thoughts."
Jane’s World includes some fun light hearted love songs like “You and Me” and “Extraordinary,” along with more serious songs like “Black Eyed Susan” and “Nursery Crimes” about domestic and child abuse. “The subject matter may seem dark, but the songs are usually presented in such a way that I’m hoping people can find the situations relatable.” says Krista. “Most importantly I want people to remember that they are not alone.
Now set to tour the east coast in support of Jane’s World, Krista D and her band which includes Phil Acheson on lead guitar, Jeb Dalling on bass and drummer Math Pinet, are excited to get out and perform live. "I simply can't wait to see how all this unfolds” says Krista, “I feel like I've been in the chrysalis stage so long... I'm really anxious to get the album out and tour. It feels like a new beginning.”
