Dilana Headline's London's Bulldog Bash

Songstress Releases Darklight Album

It's been two long years since Tommy Lee made googly eyes at her on Rock Star Supernova. She will be the second headliner at London's Bulldog Bash August 7, 2008. Her album drops this September.

Producing my new CD has been a two-year long process and now it’s been mastered in New York. The video's been shot. All that’s left now is the CD booklet artwork. It’s like a scrapbook; I kept a diary during the process, and the CD artwork is a way of sharing some of the things that happened.

I have left Rock Star Supernova behind. When people listen to my record, I think they’ll definitely recognize that it’s so not the girl that was on a reality show; it’s a real artist.

There’s not much separating the music from the rest of me, but I’ve started exploring “Shejays,” which are female deejays. I’ve been taking my original music, putting it into a dance form, and pairing up with other shejays or deejays. I think dance music is huge, especially in the UK and Europe, where I’m going to be releasing my record first.

For now though, the work is just beginning – touring, getting up in the morning for radio and TV, rehearsing, promotion.... I don’t blog as personally anymore; it was beginning to feel a bit too close. People started sending me private messages and I’ve had some crazy fans that got mad because I didn’t reply to them quickly enough. I want to connect with my fans, but I do it through my music.

This month I’m going to London, taking my drummer with me from LA. Our first big show in London is August 7, 2008 for the Bulldog Bash, and I will be the second headliner.
