One of the most unique artists in history, Versailles has a amazing and untouchable sound. Emotionally intense she shows her exquisite talent at mastering the piano, not to mention the guitar.
Versailles started out as a solo artist in Albuquerque, NM about 5 years ago. Starting in a friend's basement she came out with a four song E.P. called "Fallen Angel"(2002). That same year Versailles song "Little Dead Kitten" was placed on a compilation CD called "Burque Love 4". Versailles moved to Los Angeles in 2002 to continue her career as a musician. She came out with a CD called "Live Your Life" and a single "Kiss", in 2003 both currently available on her website.
She has had many local reviews in "Rock City News" and the "Music Connection". In 2003 Versailles played two shows for the LA Music Awards and was also on KCLA the "Dirty Dave Morning Show".

"The Goth girl with the piano" !!
author: Laura T Lynch of Kweevak.com
Dianna St. Hilaire aka Versailles is "the Goth girl with the piano". St. Hilaire often performs as a solo artist but on this four-track sampler she is supported by Andy Bettis on lead guitar and Rod Arias on electronic drums. Dianna's music is dark wave, alternative with atmospheric piano chords. St. Hilaire pens shadowy lyrics but her sweet, high ranging voice keeps the songs from being too scary, yet her music is haunting. Dianna sings with raw emotion and her classical piano playing adds character and originality to her songs. The CD features two versions of the title track 'Believe'. The first focuses on moody keyboards and vocals, whereas the second translation relies more on tempos but St. Hilaire's singing is still central. 'Lamentations' was my favorite track and featured dramatic vocals and instrumentation combined with grave guitars. Versailles takes Goth to a higher level and hearing is believing!
