NASHVILLE, Tennessee – The Dinallos swagger (“Kilimanjaro”) and sway (“When the World Was Mine”) with boundless energy (“Purgatory Road”). Sharp songwriting guides the journey (“I Need to Be Free”). Evidence: The Dinallos. “The Dinallos is an artistic reflection of life’s journey,” chief lyricist Juliet Dinallo says. “Overcoming obstacles and unforeseen challenges while accepting and learning from failure and loss with the overtones of happiness that hope brings.. An empowerment of one’s self and family in trying times.” Few capture the essence better than “Fine Time of Year.”

Fewer still deliver lyrical punch as succinctly as the album’s lead single “Kilimanjaro.” “Think I’ll go climb Kilimanjaro,” the chorus chimes with harmonies from the legendary McCrary Sisters. “Then I’ll let you go.” “The inspiration for ‘Kilimanjaro’ came from watching a story about a news reporter who overcame breast cancer and then went on to climb Kilimanjaro,” Juliet says. “The song then became a metaphor about letting go of a toxic relationship, summarizing the difficulty in moving on from a bad place.” Listen. You’ll hear new found freedom resonating.

The seamless sixteen-song collection – produced by Michael Dinallo and Tim Carter on Memphis International Records –already has turned heads far and wide. “The Dinallos is a beautiful blend of traditional rock and roll and singer-songwriter elements,” noted Nashville-based singer-songwriter Rod Picott says. “The tones are gorgeous. Michael Dinallo’s authoritative guitar work is set elegantly against Juliet’s sometimes playful, sometimes fiery vocals.” “I loved working with Michael on the wonderful Charlie Rich tribute record Feel Like Going Home: The Songs of Charlie Rich,” echoes legendary songwriter and instrumentalist Will Kimbrough. “Same with singing with Juliet on ‘Purgatory Road.’ I’m glad to be part of real, honest, heartfelt music.”
