DionneDionne

DionneDionne is a 2015 tribute album to Dionne Warwick by jazz singer Dionne Farris and guitarist Charlie Hunter. According to Hunter's website, "Charlie Hunter and Dionne Farris have planned to work with each other since they met on a Hip Hop tour working for two different groups in 1991. The inspiration for this project came in part from a mutual admiration for Dionne’s namesake, and an instant musical chemistry."[1]
