It may be surprising when the daughter of very active civil rights activists from the deep south of the USA suddenly moves to Northern Ireland. As soon as she arrived, a unique opportunity turned into a six-year engagement as a singer for Van Morrison. Now she herself is finally the center of attention. With a voice that exudes depth and emotion, Masters transports listeners to a realm where every note is a story to be told. Their music is not only heard, but felt, experienced and appreciated long after the last note has faded away.
When the jazz, soul singer and songwriter lived in Ireland, she fell in love with the Irish and British jazz scene and has never looked back since. Her unique jazz sound, imbued with soul, funk, R & B and gospel - the music she grew up with - touches audiences deeply. "Dana's diverse musical influences are evident through her very own, unique sound. Her vocal dexterity covers the spectrum from deeply meditative to floating, soulful, resonant trebles." Van Morrison
