Tunes For The Troops
**Artist Showcase**
Krall was born into a musical family in Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada. She began learning the piano at the age of four. In high school, she started playing in a small jazz group. When she was 15 she started playing regularly in several Nanaimo restaurants.
At age seventeen she won a scholarship from the Vancouver International Jazz Festival to study at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, and completed three terms.
In Nanaimo her playing attracted the attention of famed bass player Ray Brown (ex-husband of the late Ella Fitzgerald, long-time member of the Oscar Peterson Trio and Grammy-winning composer) and drummer Jeff Hamilton. After hearing her play, Brown and Hamilton persuaded Krall to move to Los Angeles, and study with pianist Jimmy Rowles, with whom she began to sing. This also brought her into contact with influential teachers and producers. In 1990, Krall relocated to New York.
Her father Jim Krall's large record collection helped to expose the young Krall to jazz legends. Diana lost her mother Adella to multiple myeloma in 2002, within months of also losing her mentors Ray Brown and Rosemary Clooney. Diana's only sibling, Michelle, a former member of the RCMP, actively supports her older sister's career.
Krall and British musician Elvis Costello were married on December 6, 2003 at Elton John's estate outside London. Their first children together, twin sons Dexter Henry Lorcan and Frank Harlan James, were born December 6, 2006 in New York City.
All music is removed on Monday. Thanks to all the DeeJay's for their time & effort providing entertainment for the Troops!

Yup, some good rain. Prayers continue for those that have to deal with the aftermath. It’s widespread and will take some time to clean up.

Thank ya Jinxie! It's what we does...
I talked with my brother-in-law in Keller, all they got was some rain and a little wind. We haven't heard from the sis-in-law in DeKalb (Texarkana) yet, but they were confident last night that they'd be able to ride out the storm in good shape.
Prayers up for the folks in Houston and Galveston...

I thought you two were relatively close to each other.
He asked if I’d seen the building in downtown Houston they keep showing, with windows blown out.
He has clients there. He handles retirement accounts for large firms on behalf of a major investment firm.
