" I get CD's from many major blues labels on a regular basis. Also Americana artists. .....( Alternate Realities ) ROCKS & the acoustic tunes are soulful & pretty. ..... the best CD I have received in a long, long time. " Brother Wease, 95.1 FOX, Clear Channel Radio, Rochester , NY
“Switching from loops to sailing solos w/ just her guitar to keep her afloat, Magone rocked it hard. Between her own self-penned goodies & some select covers , Magone never strayed too far from the blue notes, frying the frets of her guitar - and my soul - with a vicious slide. “ - Frank De Blase City Newspaper/Concert Review, Rochester, NY
" Grinding , salty , sexy voice...... I Love it ! " - Sandra Brooks Fan / Utica, NY
ALTERNATE REALITIES is a " Rock & Kick Your Ass Blues " project near & dear to my heart because it was my first all studio project in collaboration with some wonderfully creative , talented individuals . My first cd
"Blues Boogie & more......." was in protest of more conventional methods . This time around I felt a need to open up , & welcome a diverse & deep well of partnerships in order to feel more of an expansive , global sense of connection . It was time for me to spread the music & the lyrics as far & as wide as humanly & spiritually possible.
We each have so much to offer , do & to say to be of service while in this existance together. I felt a sense of urgency because of the particularly negative current global events , that now was the time for me to make it happen on a larger scale.
" Alternate Realities " describes the diversity of my playlist . I have love songs , playful songs , socio- political songs. Each a reality , point of view, or story of it's own . The genre is Rock , Rock Blues , Blues , & a little Gospel.

"Whimsical to whalloping, Blues, Boogie & More".........LA Reader, Los Angeles, CA
I've been singing all my born days & playing guitar ( & a smidgen of piano ) since I was 11yrs young. I teach all age groups since around 1980 ( I first started at the great great House of Guitars in Rochester , NY ) . I'm a former student of the late great Richard "Dick" Longale.
However I'm also in to organic gardening, art ( I was an Art major in college & taught for a short while ), film & tv ( started a cable access show called "GreenLine" 6 yrs or so ago & made a few short documentaries on video.google) . I love science, metaphysics for decades, politics ( former GREEN PARTY co-chair & subscribed to Mother Jones magazine since around 1972 :), psychology, organic nutrition & general health topics ( colitis survivor for decades since 1983 ) kids- taught them for decades & have raised 2 beautiful ones ( VP PTSA ), & have taught Okinawan martial arts since 1978 ( students from 4 to 70yrs old ).
I also believe in free speech & the science that proves that certain sounds affect very particular nerve endings in our chochlea which touch our nervous system in ways that cause us to feel certain emotions. SO, that being said, lets keep it positive , civil & if you're angry about something , which most of us have great reason to be these days, please express it in a way that will spur positive healing & action!
I'm in to learning. Let's help disseminate useful stuff here as well to help us all improve our quality of life in these trying times.

"This is one of the best ass kicking blues rock Cd's I've heard since Zeppelin. I'm struck by the versatility in her voice, Deborah can tear it up like Janis Joplin & Ann Wilson (Heart), turn around & give you chills with some Gospel or just a soft Ballad. Just a Great CD from beginning to end !"

"........a holistic spiritual gutbucket organic blues Goddess, & quite possibly the only one in the world......."
-
"You must hear this high spirited artist in person to truly appreciate what a gift she has for all of us.....for our times & in our lives. The quality of her voice resonates into the depths of your heart in ways that cannot be contained on a digital CD. "
