Donna De Lory has a new CD Here in Heaven. Donna is a singer, songwriter/composer who has worked with artists like Bette Midler, Carly Simon, Leonard Cohen, Madonna, and many others.

Donna was on top of the music scene but something was missing. “I wasn’t singing my truth,” she says. “I said to myself, I thought, ‘I’ve got to shift this.’ So I wrote a prayer—‘I want my life to change, I want my life to change’—on a piece of paper and put it in my dresser. And my life really did change. I got pregnant, had my daughter, and started doing mantra music.” Thus came about Donna’s 2001 CD Bliss.

Tune in for an interesting discussion and to hear Donna De Lory’s beautiful music.
