Tune In Tuesday: Dia Frampton

Tuesday, September 18, 2012 7 Comments



Tune In Tuesday is a weekly feature in which bloggers get to showcase another one of their loves, music! The feature is hosted by Ginger over at GReads! but until further notice you can find it over at Kate’s Tales of Books and Bands.

Dia Frampton is currently one of my favorite singers to date. I first learned of her when I watched The Voice – Season 1 where she became a runner up. She’s full of talent and she has a way of making some cover songs her own. She also writes her own song and I just love her. FYI, she is also in a band with her sister and it’s called Meg & Dia. They got amazing songs. So, check Dia out, as well as her band.

Here are some of Dia’s songs:

1. The Broken Ones

2. Don't Kick The Chair

3. Love Can Come From Anywhere

4. Trapeze 

5. I Will (feat. Blake Shelton)

My oh-so-The-Voice-inspired October Playlist

Friday, October 21, 2011 0 Comments

A weekend with nothing to do got me to watch The Voice marathon over at AXN. Yeah! The show finished months ago and I’m way late. Ha! This then led to my October Dia obsession (Dia’s one of my favorites on the show). Afterward, I started looking over the internet about Dia and found out she has a band with her sister called Meg & Dia. Later on, I found myself downloading her and her band's songs.


Here are some of my favorites which kept playing on my music player:

Some info about Dia Frampton and her band:


Dia is a singer-songwriter from St. George, Utah. She’s half Korean and half-Dutch. Her career aspiration has been to be a voice-over actress, but her considerable singing talents may just steer her elsewhere. A life-long bookworm, Dia also writes novels and children's books.


Dia, together with her sister Meg were the founders of the band Meg & Dia which was formed in 2004.  The band is now a five-piece act with additional members Nicholas Price, Jonathan Snyder, and Carlo Gimenez. The band released its first album, Our Home Is Gone, in 2005. At the time, the band consisted of just the two Frampton sisters, and the album's tracks were mostly acoustic songs. Meg played guitar and provided back-up vocals while Dia sang. A year later, they released their second album, Something Real. In 2009 the band released Here, Here and Here. 2011 came their fourth album Cocoon.
