People Joanne's music is positive expression by Corinne Boyle People have their own ways of express- ing their individual thoughts and feelings about the world and life in general. Joanne Dust's outlet for expression is through song. Since high school, Joanne has been voic- ing her feelings in the words she writes. "It's always been for myself—an expres- sion of what I believe or what I feel." The local songwriter recently had one of her songs, "Looking for Lovers" recorded by Doug Cameroli, a Toronto musician, on, his tape, "C'mon Rise Up." The tape is only available through the Baha'i Distribution Book Store and can be ordered by anyone through the Baha'i community. Being a member of the Baha'i community for 10 years is an influence for T,1.011.,110 UAW... "The major influence is just life. "What I believe wouldn't be different if 1 wasn't Baha'i. Most of it (her music) doesn't sound religious but there's certain- ly that inspiration." Joanne came from a very musical fami- ly and began writing songs when she was in high school. "There was music all around, so it seemed like the natural thing to do." "As a teenage, music was my outlet. What I wrote conveyed what I was feeling at the time. Music I write at different times in my life has a different feeling to it." Joanne says she's written about 25 or 30 songs altogether, but the bulk of those were written within the last couple of years. And, the strongest message that's been coming across in her latest songs has been one of optimism. As a mother of four children, two daughers, five and six years old, and twin sons, four years old, Joanne says her "large, young family" is an inspiration. Being at home in Goderich full time, she knows it is not easy raising children today. "It's difficult to raise positive -minded children in such a negative world. I believe the world will be here forever and the world will shape up, but I don't feel it's go- ing to be easy." So, through her songs, Joanne hopes to convey this message that life should be ap- proached.in a more positive light. "I hope that feeling of a positive attitude toward life and the world, comes through in my music. Concentrate on the good in people, even when you have to look hard to find it. „ She stresses 'the positive in her music because she believes, "Whatever feeling you have in your heart, music will strengthen, it. Music is a product of dif- ferent times. For example, I don't like the idea of every high school having a mar- ching band. The marching band was a pro- duct of war. That's why I don't like the idea— because we shouldn't be steering children into that frame of mind:" So, Joanne promotes peace and hope for mankind. She thinks people are living in too much fear of the fpture and she would like to reassure them that life will continue and to concentrate on the positive aspects of life. Local musician and songwriter, Joanne Durst, has had one of her songs recorded by Toron- to based musician, Doug Cameron. (photo by Corrine Boyle) Up to this point Joanne has performed mostly locally, at small concerts and for friends. She met Doug Cameron and Jack Lenz, who co-produced "C'mon Rise Up", through a musicians' network in Toronto. She got to know them during the last two years at workshops she attended in Toronto: In May, the Baha'i community asked Cameron to come to Goderich for a con- cert. At that time, Cameron heard some of Joanne's songs and asked her to send him tape of "Looking for.Lovers." 'There was something about that song he liked," says Joanne. "It's a compliment and a real honor to be recorded, by him and the other musicians on the tape too. They're some of the' best in Canada. A lot of times it doesn't make sense to Joanne why Cameron happened to pick one of her songs. "There are a lot of really talented people in Goderich. Sometimes I don't understand why it happened, but I hope it continues." As for Joanne's future plans, she hopes to become more proficient as a musician. She plays guitar, piano and flute, but would like to improve her knowledge of the guitag and is considering buying an elec- . tronic keyboard sometime soon. "I'd like to be able to fool around with all those gadgets and make all kinds of different sound combinations." And who is Joanne's biggest fan? Why, her husband, Jim. "He's not a musician, but he's very creative," says Joanne. "I think two creative minds are a good com- bination. He's a good critic, although sometimes I'd rather not hear what he has to say. But, a lot of times he has good ideas."
