That’s Not Something That Happens Every Day #3

September 22, 2020

I just got my first fan gift—$20 in my Venmo account—with a note saying, “A special dessert for your special trip.”

Methinks there is a Häagen-Dazs in my near future. We know how I feel about that delicious stuff.

Tomorrow morning at 8:30, the (Grammy award-winning) violinist is meeting us at the recording studio.

Tomorrow afternoon, the vocalist is “laying down her track.”

Thursday night, we are filming the music video to go along with the song.

Friday morning, my husband will have to peel me off the ceiling.

About Marie de Haan

Marie is a gifted pianist, playing since the age of nine. As a teenager, she composed mainly instrumental piano music. She released her powerful debut single, “I Am Broken,” on October 22, 2020, a song whose creation drew heavily upon the trauma she endured as a victim of childhood sexual abuse. Marie held a benefit concert on September 10, 2021, in Skagit County. A portion of the proceeds went to CrossRoads Youth Ranch; this local organization—through equine therapy—empowers “at-risk and sexually exploited youth to heal, grow, and thrive.” She has continued to write music: Christian, folk, and country. Marie loves hiking, gardening, and photography. The Pacific Northwest—where she lives with her husband—is the backdrop for her favorite activities.
