Dionya (pronounced Dee-on-ya) Marie is a singer/songwriter who has found a broad audience the last few years with songs charting on Country, POP, and Adult Contemporary charts.  Dionya’s debut Country single “Andale Yeehaw” was released in late 2018, which was followed by several releases in 2019  including “Rubberneck”, about men’s tendencies when they see a pretty girl.
In 2020 she released the original Country version of her novelty song “Calm Down Karen”, which was played over 50 million times on TikTok.  The success of the country version led her to release a POP version in 2021 “Calm Down Karen- Can I Speak to a Manger remix”, which reached #48 on the BDS/Billboard Top 40 POP Indicator chart. 
Dionya’s release of “Gonna Take a Real Strong Man” in early 2022 was the first of several new songs she was inspired to write after wading through an old storage locker full of long-suppressed, often painful memories. It is a poignant look back at some of the events that have shaped her life, and the demons she still deals with today.  It enjoyed a four plus month run on secondary Country radio.
“Hands”, released in Summer 2022, became Dionya’s first crossover hit as it spent seven weeks on the Adult Contemporary charts inside the Top 20, where she was the #1 independent artist for five of those weeks.
“Missing You Underneath the Mistletoe”, her holiday 2022 release, became Dionya’s second consecutive Top 20 hit on the Adult Contemporary Charts, reaching a high of #14.  Her vocals channeled her inner Karen Carpenter whose vocal techniques she studied for a tribute show she performed in Las Vegas for several years.  “Mistletoe” was released again for the 2023 holiday season and reached #4 on the HOT A/C Recurrents chart, propelling Dianña to a #2 ranking of A/C Independent Recurrent artists.
Dionya had a busy 2023 releasing three songs to Country radio.  “A Street Called Evergreen”, an uplifting song in the classic country style, in which she recollects about her earliest musical influences and songwriting experiences as a child.  Then “Girl With No Last Name”, which lays bare her still raw emotions about the last names that have been forced upon her and why she hates them all.  And “You Don’t Know Me”, a twist on the saga of a cheating husband’s lover who called out her competition, only to discover that she was actually the side piece, which reached #76 on the Music Row chart.  
In Dionya’s newest song, “Miss You So Mad”, she reflects on healing after a break-up.  It will be released to both Country and Adult Contemporary radio on April 29th. 
Dionya’s musical passions also extend to philanthropic efforts. In support of Breast Cancer Awareness, she wrote and performed her original songs ``Stand Up & Live Strong” and “I Know I’m Beautiful” at several Susan G. Komen Race for the Cures and Breast Cancer Award Ceremonies.  She has also worked for many children’s charities including Children Uniting Nations, Vote NOH8, and Toys 4 Tots.

From humble beginnings playing the trumpet at age 10 and continuing through college, Eugene “Elliott” Ruff-Wagner began performing professionally as a rock and country drummer in 1975, from which you can infer eligibility for the senior discount at IHOP. There have been many original and cover bands along the way in San Jose, California and Albuquerque, New Mexico. These days you might catch him playing the guitar and singing his original songs at the occasional open mic. This is his Soundcloud collection of original songs written over the years and recorded in various settings, including home demos and professional studio recordings. Elliott would like to thank the many other musicians included in these recordings - Chris, Chick, and Candy Marshall; Christine Amber; Robert Berry; Gary Reynolds; Patrick Hickey; Doug Flint; Robyn Mackenzie; and the family pets (on Ol' Yellergrass and Tuna Catserrole).
