iana McIntosh is, in fact, a mountaineer. She combines music and mountains in a full-evening one-woman show SOLITARY CLIMB in which her audience shares a daring experience "scaling the sheer face of new music."

Maude Pilly (Diana's alter-ego, and Manitoba's Sarah Binks) comes from remote Dandelion, Manitoba. She is a folksy and entertaining composer/performer.
