Meet Vermont's Diane Zeigler
The winner of 8 national songwriting awards, Vermont’s Diane Zeigler is a skilled performer with a quick laugh, and her live shows offer a full spectrum of entertainment and inspired musicianship. She combines a crystalline vocal style with distinctive open-tuning guitar work, crafting songs that have earned her respect among songwriters and critics as “one of the most talented singer-songwriters New England has produced.” (The Music Matters) Her recordings have been consistently lauded by critics and each has charted #1 on national folk radio playlists published at www.folkradio.org.
Zeigler’s songs capture a sense of place and community, informed as they are by the unique landscape of Vermont. She took a 20 year hiatus to raise a family, but is back to songwriting and performing and plans a new recording. Learn more about Zig.
