Diane Coll - Cowboy Church
The first single from Diane Coll's album Happy Fish and Other Delights (radio add date October 11, 2022), “Cowboy Church” is a sad and haunting love song, striking a lilting balance between sweetness and sorrow.
After circumstances sidelined her musical endeavors for a number of years, a goldfish reigniting her passion for songwriting in 2017. In tribute, she titled her first solo release Happy Fish and Other Delights. The symbolism of this little goldfish’s story reflects the transformation cycle of Diane’s current life.
True story: A goldfish, found outside in a metal pot, sees a new world once put into a glass fish bowl. New home, new life, new vision, this little goldfish is then named Happy Fish.
Often times, we do not realize there is something better on the other side of that metal pot of limitations until life forces us out of our comfort zone. It is exhilarating to then realize there is new life on the other side.
Coll was born in Chicago and grew up on a steady diet of 70’s AM/FM radio. Although she dabbled in the Chicago music scene as a writer, singer/guitarist, and producer, she eventually felt the pull toward Georgia due to the vibrant music scene in Athens. It was here she fronted her band Rosary in the ‘90s and released one album entitled Clairvoyance.
