Diana Krall back to work after 6 month maternity leave

Songstress Diana Krall, 42, is returning to work after taking time off to enjoy the last weeks of her pregnancy and the birth of her twin boys, Dexter Henry Lorcan and Frank Harlan James, almost 5 months, with her husband Elvis Costello. Diana says,

[Six months without playing piano] is the longest I’ve ever been away from music. It’s not like I’ve been slacking off, or leaving it because I’m uninspired. I’ve been very busy with my family, and…it feels good. I’m very much in the moment, and I’m loving my life right now. I’m feeding my little boy. Sitting here with my little boy [Frank].

I toured right up until my seventh month. I promoted an album until I was seven months pregnant. With twins. I kept very active and busy, more than, my doctor said, any other patient with twins that he’s ever had
