Diamonds Under Fire is the heart and soul of singer, songwriter, and guitarist Vanessa Silberman. She started the band in her late teens & evolved it over the last 9 years. Silberman took on multiple roles in the studio from playing most of the instruments to producing. Behind the scenes you could find her doing everything from booking tours to running DUF music online content, to designing the bands art & images.

In April 2011 Diamonds Under Fire self-released the debut record produced by Vanessa Silberman tracked with Kevin Calaba at Paul Green’s Studio House (School Of Rock creator in New York). A tour supported the release which included dates with electro-rock duo Uh Huh Her.

After returning home from tour in the summer of 2011, Silberman was invited to collaborate on tracks with Engineer / Producer John ‘Lou’ Lousteau at the Foo Fighter’s Studio 606.

In early 2012, after numerous line up changes, Silberman, always eager to evolve & develop the bands sound, recruited drummer Jessica Goodwin (Big Black Delta) and bassist Melinda Holm (JAN). The chemistry clicked and newly created DUF lineup made their LIVE debut at Sunset Strip Music Festival. By the summer of 2012 the three piece released their single “Sunshine” which was recorded Studio 606.

Diamonds Under Fire spent most of 2013 in the studio, collaborating with John ‘Lou’ Lousteau and is in the final mixing stages with their next record. Release set for Spring 2014.
