  • Mark Whitby’s review of the latest exclusive session

    Author and Dandelion Radio DJ Mark Whitby posted this review of the latest exclusive session I recorded for his November 2026 show: In session this month: Diane Marie Kloba. Here’s an excerpt:

    Diane has a sound that is unmistakably her own yet, with each new album, she seems to reveal different facets to that sound while somehow retaining her own unique identify. For me, there are very few artists in the world who can do this and that’s why I tend to approach every new Diane Marie Kloba release like a kid approaches presents on Christmas morning.

  • Mark Whitby’s review of Red Sun

    Author and Dandelion Radio DJ Mark Whitby recently posted a review of my latest album, Red Sun, along with a retrospective on the acoustic session I recorded for his show in 2018. Here’s an excerpt:

    It’s a defiant album created by an artist standing for humanity, vulnerability and perception amid the chaos of an America that’s not just lost its way, but has found another, very dangerous one. But beneath the fragility of Diane’s songs lies a profoundly human strength and that’s exactly what we need right now.
