One day last summer while having lunch at PM on Belmont she graciously gave me her new album and immediately it become one of my favorites! Her music is nothing but beautiful melodies with lyrics that fill you full of hope, all sung by the voice of an angel. I say she is an angel because she truly following a path illuminated by God.
One of my favorite lyrics in her song, Light at Eventide, was used in a graphic print I created for the The Contributor art show last fall. It says, "Chase the shadows from my soul, fill my sky with rays of hope, so I know I'm not alone." That particular phrase struck my heart because when the darkness in life tries to overcome me, all it takes is a prayer to be filled with the spirit again, and she understands that too. I know God brought our paths together many many times and that insight is something I do not take lightly.
So do not miss her show tonight at Puckett's in Franklin! She will be joined by special guests, The Vespers, for a first time, one of a kind, combo show that will be a special treat for all that attend. For more information please click here.
P.S. If you miss the show tonight, she will be playing at Musician's Corner this Saturday, May 28th 3-6 PM.
