Amy on Dionne
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 22 September 2009
Amy Winehouse has been chatting more about her new record label Lioness Records, which she announced she was launching a while back. Those with good memories will remember her first signing is her thirteen year old goddaughter Dionne Bromfield.
Bigging up Dionne, Amy told The Sun: “The first time I heard Dionne sing, I couldn’t believe what I was hearing, such an amazing voice from such a young girl. She’s so much better than I was at her age. I’m just so proud of her. She’s a great songwriter and guitarist but I want her to experience life so she can write more. Singing songs that are so personal, it’s deep. But she knows what she’s doing. To be honest, when I say Dionne’s like my sister, a lot of the time she’s like my older sister”.
I’m not sure when Lioness will release the first Bromfield record, presumably when Dionne’s done enough living. To be honest I’m not really sure why Winehouse has been specifically talking about her new record label this week at all – though someone was reporting all this was newsworthy because Winhouse’s business venture had now “officially launched”, whatever that means.
