Dyanne has performed extensively throughout Europe and the USA as both a classical pianist and as a singer/songwriter. Her piano performances are known to be expressive, fiery and dynamic, her singing both sensitive and passionate.

She toured for two years as keyboard player for Shirley Reeves (former lead singer with the Shirelles), and later as keyboard player/backup singer with Noel Redding which resulted in shows with Ginger Baker and Tico Torres. She has played solo shows in Sweden, Norway, Switzerland, USA, Greece, and Japan.
Potter's Daughter was formed in NYC while Dyanne was studying classical piano performance at the Manhattan School of Music. The group performed regularly in NYC, as well as in northeastern PA. Potter's Daughter has been featured on radio, tv, and in national and international magazines and blogs. Potter's Daughter released their debut album, The Blind Side, in August 2018. In 2019 they released two singles; Blood and Water, featuring Annie Haslam (Renaissance) as guest artist, and the holiday single, This Winter's Child, which was composed for the MRR Holiday album.
In March 2020 they went on tour with MRR labelmate Joe Deninzon & Stratospheerius and Dark Beauty. They were also invited to participate in several online festivals, including The Uncancelled Music Festival (April), The WorldWide Prog and Rock Virtual Festival (May), and most recently, the prestigious ProgStock Festival (August).
They also released their Covid Quarantine EP, "Casually Containing Rage." The single from the EP, "We Could Be," was released as a video, directed by filmmaker Serena Kunzler.
In December 2020, Potter's Daughter was featured in the Limelight section of Prog Magazine, and in the same edition, voted #2 in the Reader's Poll Unsigned Band Category.
This year (2021) Potter's Daughter enjoyed the privilege of participating in the debut release (Pyrrha's Song) for Nick Katona's "Troubleshooting Pandora's Box," together with drummer Jimmy Keegan.
Their music video, "We Could Be," was chosen as a finalist to compete in the annual American Golden Picture International Film Festival.
Looking ahead, Potter's Daughter has been invited to perform at the prestigious music festivals, ProgStock (New Jersey), and Prog On the Ranch (Florida) this October.
And now, joining forces with the world-renowned drummer, Simon Phillips, they plan to release their heaviest work to date. Release date is set for September 30, 2021.
The Artwork for the album cover was created especially for this project by the master artist, Armand Cabrera.
