Internationally acclaimed entertainer Deana Martin has launched a year long coast-to-coast tour, in conjunction with Destination Moon, her latest CD for Big Fish Records.
Destination Moon, Deana’s fourth studio offering, is a musical rocket ride featuring 14 seminal performances (10 classics plus four new songs written especially for her), each interpreted with Deana’s trademark elegance and charm. Upon release, the CD immediately entered iTunes coveted Top 100.
A highlight of Destination Moon is True Love, a beautiful duet by Deana and her dad, Dean Martin. Recording a duet with her dad has been a life-long goal of Deana’s. Remembering the session at Capitol Records in Hollywood, Deana recalled, “There I was in the studio where my dad recorded so many of his greatest hits, using his microphone, and I looked down at the original handwritten Nelson Riddle sheet music and saw his name at the top. When the music started, and I heard his voice in my headphones, it was overwhelming. It was as though he was right there, with me in the studio.”
