Releases

My song “Got My Life Back” was released today on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, YouTube, and a whole bunch of other platforms. You know what that means. Here is how the husband and I celebrated: A. Looked at freezers at Judd & Black because ours is tanking…the trouble started while we were in Yellowstone. B. […]

Back on July 12, I was telling you about the young man who was struggling with life. You can read that story here. The song that I wrote about that conversation I had with him (plus some of my past trauma thrown in for good measure) is now available on Spotify, iTunes, YouTube, and all […]

It was my last full day in Nashville. The producer brought in two musicians he knows—I had never met them—and we wrote a song and recorded it all in one day (because I had to get my bahookie on the airplane the following afternoon). It was so much fun. Both musicians commented that they had […]

When the producer was here in Washington helping me set up my home recording studio several months ago, I asked him if we could write another praise song that could be used for church like “Forever Changed” that we wrote together back in February 2021. As you know, I did my first-ever solo trip to […]

My song “Unique” is now available on Spotify, YouTube, iTunes, blah blah blah. Katrien Shaw—the powerhouse I talked about a few posts back—sings so beautifully and powerfully as always. Dallas Jack (my producer)…well, his magic never ceases to amaze me. And then there’s Ken. He pays for everything. This latest trip to Nashville cost us […]

Last winter, I was talking with a young man who was struggling with life. After encouraging him, I told him that he was not alone, that I’ve suffered with depression as well (because of trauma) in the past. I told him that I’ve had to make a choice to be happy and fight it every […]

This song came out two years ago. When my mom was dying of celiac a few years back, I listened to it (and “I Wear Your Crown”) over and over and over.

“Redeemed” was released today on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music and all the places. If you want to know the history of this song, I talk about it here.

Well, bummer. I messed up on the release of “Redeemed” that was supposed to happen on Friday. I forgot to give props to Katie (by “featuring” her) and that just cannot happen. She sings this song so beautifully and should be acknowledged. As you know, I am not a patient person, but I’m also going […]

I started writing this song February 25, 2010: just some pretty piano music. I was trying to show a student how to do composition. She wasn’t interested. Fourteen years later, here I am. Katie sings this song so beautifully. She’s the friend that wrote the bridge for the song “Peace” that I just released on […]
