D. Watts is a singer/lyricist from Birmingham, Alabama. She spent six- years fronting several cover bands and had a successful career as a cover band artist, but desired to do more. In 2004, she started writing her first album, My Own Way, co-written and produced by Ben Trexel. The album released in July 2005. D~ and Trexel didn’t waste any time in utilizing their creative abilities and started the second album later that year in November. During the course of writing the second album, D’s life began to transform. Her songs began to reflect her need for God in every part of her life. The lyrics are about real life struggles with which we all can identify. She quickly realized that Christian music is where she belongs and left the world of cover bands and night life. D~ grew up in a Christian home filled with music. Her parents are musicians and lead worship at their church. She was raised to sing for God, but chose to follow a different path for many years. Now, with the completion of the second album, Brand New Start, D~ is literally making a brand new start. She is embarking on a new career in singing in the Christian arena. Combining her own personal testimony of how God delivered her from the enticements and deceptions of the world with the power of how impacting our choices can be, she is speaking out to those hurting and looking for a better life. The music is a mix of modern rock, acoustic, and edgy-alternative with D’s deep, soulful voice tying it altogether. Trexel brings an influence of Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, Collective Soul, and Evanescence together to create the unique and identifiable sound of D. Watts. D. Watts has played over 400 events during her career and carries a mesmerizing, energetic presence on stage that will leave the audience impacted in a positive way. During 2006, she has been a part of the line up at Workplay Theatre, the Birmingham Chicks Rock Fest, the Whistlestop Festival, and several local Christian events. She has been featured on WBHM’s “Tapestry” and in the Cornerstone News. For more information/booking on D. Watts: www.myspace.com/dwatts1
