It’s For Your Grammy® Consideration Season

It’s For Your Grammy® Consideration “FYC” Season! I’m excited to have submissions in a few categories for the 69th Awards! One of my proudest moments in this musical journey has been my acceptance as a member of the Recording Academy!

SILENT NIGHT OH HOLY NIGHT (LIVE)

For the first time, I’m submitting in the Gospel & Contemporary Christian Music category with my Christmas rendition of Silent Night Oh Holy Night (Live) featuring Hartmanni. This was a very special moment captured. My very first Christmas show. This was only a snippet of the gift that evening was for me. I hope the voting members will consider the authenticity of the performance.

SUNSET DRIVE

Last year, along with the Jupiter Gallery, we released what producer Carl Arnold called our beloved “Sunset Drive”… Little did we know, this song would sit at #1 on several charts in the U.S., UK, Italy and Canada for several weeks. This song represents the beauty of collaboration between someone who heard my voice, I heard their track and it was an instant yes! We are hoping the members will give this very unassuming, classic song a listen and a vote.

I’M IN YOU

I have been exploring and discovering more of my voice! I’ve been taking risks and honoring legends. “I’m in You” is another representation of that effort. Our team stayed true to the original, but gave it just enough soul to make it such. The original chord progressions by Peter Frampton are beautiful. A nod from my peers would not only be wonderful for me, but for the songwriter, Peter Frampton!
