Hope Diamond
Awaken
As Hope prepares for another amazing CD release party this Sept 19th at Campus Jax in Newport since returning from 2 sold out shows in Atlanta this past July 2021, can’t help but reflect on the journey it has been to this point. Hope is celebrating her new album “Awaken” Summer 2021 that had been in the works since before the pandemic and is excited to bring it to you with a fabulous big band sound with special guest like horn player Tom Brown of “Jamaica funk”. And guitarist Blake Aaron. She is singing great nostalgic and very hot big band tunes with a jazzy yet funky feel. Truly a wonderful album to enjoy while driving or relaxing!

Hope Diamond, jazz, and RnB performer has sung since a child in church. She has song as a headliner for four months on the Italian cruise liner the MSC with a Ukrainian jazz Trio who played nightly to international guests’ way way into the night. She currently is performing with the Paul McDonald 17-piece Big band out of Los Angeles as a featured artist.

She was the opening act with the Shea Welch band for the panama Jazz festival at the Panama Canal performing with musicians from that country singing both in English and Spanish. Hope was recruited to teach English thru Jazz in Beijing, China for the private schools there who wanted a unique approach to learning American culture.
