Deeyana discovered music when she was only four years old. She comes from a musical family - her father is a successful musician and amulti-instrumentalist. She started playing the piano and progressed onto the flute and alto sax. Singing came naturally to her. When she was 9 years old, she discovered that she had a rare 4-octave range. To this day, her range continues to grow. Even though Deeyana was never taught to sing, her father would always notice if she would be singing the wrong note. Then he'd give her a tip on how to work on a certain technical problem - but never longer than a minute or so. These small lessons proved to be quite helpful as Deeyana grew into a confident singer by the age of 13. Deeyana is a classically educated instrumentalist, however she prefers contemporary styles, such as dance, rock and electronica.
Her musical diversity has been compared to the likes of Evanescence, Living Joy, Mariah Carey, Grover Washington JR.
