Tribe

Dianivy ~ Lead Vocals/ Acoustic Guitar/ Songwriting

Raised in lush Virginia and sunny southern New Mexico, Dianivy was nurtured early on with 4-part acapella singing and piano lessons. Since her youth, she has been performing in musicals, operas, show choirs and folk-rock bands. Dianivy is a nurturing, upbeat soul whose spirit soars through a cadre of creative outlets such as using organic foods to produce exotic ethnic theme dinners for the evolving constellation of her extended family. Dianivy feels every note of her music and raises her two sons, Josh and Forest, with the same passion. Simply put, she loves the practice of being an Eco-Mama and hates to wear shoes in the garden. When she's not writing songs, she can be found tending her chickens, dreaming ahead for the Rainbow Gathering, or offering up laundry to the sun.

Glenn Meizlesh ~ Bass Guitar

Glenn is a transplant from East Coast, moving from the DC/ Alexandria area to the sunsets, mountains and chile of the Rio Grande Valley. Glenn grew up in Baltimore and has lived in Chicago and London with band experience to match his moves. Along with bass, he plays guitar, piano, clarinet, mandolin, Djembe and....whatever he picks up next. His playing experience has taught him that what not to play is as important as what to play. Glenn believes in the healing and transformative power of music and that music and energy can be channeled through musicians. He listens to music from all over the world and believes that music has a unique ability to bring people of different cultures together because of its universality and its purity. He says, "Listen to Celtic music, bluegrass, klezmer and African juju and you will find much of it says the same thing, just in very different contexts."

Ernesto "Zoom" Crespin ~ Drum Kit/Percussion

Zoom—a.k.a. Ernesto Crespin Jr., is a native of Albuquerque and has been playing drums professionally for 29 years.

Chaz Jetty ~ Lead Guitar/ Backup Vocals

Jupiter Rose ~ Lead Guitar

Jupiter Rose is a native New Mexican who began playing guitar at age 15. She played lead guitar in Rosewood, an all-girl country band for 10 years before studying guitar at Musicians Institutes in Hollywood California in 2006. On stage, she exudes focus and talent and plays just as easily when performing acoustic with Dianivy as a duo or with the full Tribe. Her "have fun" energy and dedication to the music is contagious and her interpretation of the material is inspiring.

Vance Bass ~ all around musician :)

Vance has played all sorts of music over the years, from medieval to punk, but folk-rock is his enduring love. He plays guitar, bass or percussion, depending on which way the wind is blowing. A band mate and family friend of Dianivy's from way back, Vance adds experience and tasteful additions to her material.

Mark McEuen ~ Techy Stuff Guy

From most faithful fan to endearing tech guy, Mark has had a most appreciated impact on Dianivy's shows. His combined passions for computer programming and music have undoubtedly groomed him to be able to enjoy providing some really beautiful fractal shows.
