Diunna Greenleaf, the leader of Blue Mercy, is a native Texan (Houston) who has a background steeped in gospel music. Influenced by Koko Taylor, Aretha Franklin, Rosetta Thorpe, Sam Cooke, Charles Brown and her own parents Ben & Mary Ella Greenleaf (Gospel). She has developed "Diunna's style of Blues" in the same tradition as so many other great Texas blues men and women. She combines intricate patches of jazz, gospel and heartfelt soul to create a kind of blues that takes one on an emotional roller coaster ride.

Performing with Bob Margolin, Keb Mo, Willie "Pinetop" Perkins, Hubert Sumlin, Willie "Big Eyes" Smith, James Cotton, Carrie Bell, Big Bill Morganfield, Smokin' Joe Kubek and B'Nois King, Anson Funderburgh & The Rockets (with Sam Myers), Bernard Allison, Odetta, Rod Piazza and the Mighty Flyers, I.J. Gosey, Sherman Robertson, Kenny Neal, the late great Teddy "Cry Cry" Reynolds, Mud Morganfield and numerous others has truly been an honor in her career.
