If you haven’t met Dwayna Litz yet, let this be your invitation into the world of a true American songstress and a storyteller whose music bridges the heartfelt charm of country with the timeless elegance of jazz. With songs published by Universal Music and Spirit Music, and recordings under her own Litz Music label, Dwayna is a rare gem — equally at home interpreting Great American Songbook classics as she is penning raw, emotional originals like “Stayin’ Gone.”
From the very first strum of the guitar, “Stayin’ Gone” unfolds like a personal letter — intimate, resolute, and laced with quiet heartache. Dwayna’s voice doesn’t beg for attention; instead, it earns your trust. There’s a lived-in warmth to her tone — a classic country soulfulness that makes every word ring true. Her vocal delivery is unhurried and sincere, allowing the emotional weight of the lyrics to settle in like dust on an old photograph.
The instrumentation is beautifully understated. A gentle acoustic guitar leads the way, anchored by a steady groove that never distracts, only deepens the reflective atmosphere. The production keeps things honest — no flashy tricks, just organic textures that let the story breathe.
At its core, “Stayin’ Gone” is about choosing peace over pain, about finding freedom in goodbye. It’s not a song of bitterness but of quiet strength — a graceful exit delivered with dignity and heart.
Dwayna Litz doesn’t just sing songs; she inhabits them. “Stayin’ Gone” is proof that sometimes the softest voices leave the deepest mark.
