I spent six glorious hours organizing the recording studio with the producer today. (Ken had to work.)
Not only did I help rearrange furniture several times and discuss the best placement for foam panels for the best sound quality, I learned a ton, recorded a piano track for a new song, listened to Dallas work his magic with the electric guitar, and talked about details of my next trip to Nashville.
The only time I didn’t have a smile permanently plastered on my face todaywas during the excruciating moments that Dallas listened to the recording Ken took of my voice last night.
Other than that, we laughed and laughed, ate soup and cookies, and generally had a jolly good time.
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.
