Sharing songs that I have I played on….Grateful for the artists entrusting me to play on or compose the string parts for their treasures.
Songs I’m On
A collaboration beyond my wildest imagination that arose near the beginning of my music journey, that could only have occurred through God’s hand. We hope this song points you to God and reminds you of His holiness, power and beauty. The mind-blowing aspect about God’s holiness is that we can and should go to Him with all things at all times, without shame, because of Jesus’s sacrifice. How beautiful is that?
Christian Hip-Hop/Rap song written by the epic anointed hip-hop/rapper Lathan Warlick and exquisite cinematic vocals by SVRCINA.
Violin track: StoryLight Strings

I relocated my upright piano to my recording studio and have been thoroughly enjoying delving into the realm of felt piano recordings. Placing a strip of felt between the hammers and strings of the piano yields a distinct and incredibly intimate sound.
In this simple piano composition, my inspiration stemmed from sitting at the keys and cycling through various chords without adhering to a strict sense of time. The relaxed tempo imparts a feeling of timelessness. Midway through the piece, my friend and violinist, Yvonne (StoryLight Strings), joins the progression with some beautiful violin melodies.

SLIP by the Social Club Misfits, Austin White 711
The MISFITS, powerhouse Christian rap/hip-hop artists, who make music for God’s kingdom! Check them out on Spotify! This is from their 10 year anniversary album with 3 bonus tracks. They make amazing music and I’m genuinely floored that I have a little violin line on their album!
I’m playing a violin loop at the OUTRO of the song! Just a pure joy and gift to be a part of music focused on the Kingdom!

SLIP
A new day has come with the birth of Jesus! Our hope has come!! This song of worship was written by Lisa Rono for her church for the Christmas season!
God is inviting all of us to come regardless of who we are and where we are in life: all those who are broken, forgotten, alone, scorned, and lost. He is the father to the fatherless. We don’t need to come to Him only when we believe or feel that we are “good enough.” He wants us to go to Him as we are, broken and imperfect. This is why God sent us Jesus, the Savior, to give us new life. What good news!

Dawn of a New Day
A song composed and produced by Eric Owyoung (artist behind Future of Forestry). I am always musically stretched and learn oodles every time I get to create music with Eric (incredibly talented), so can you imagine how excited I was to be asked to play some VIOLA and violin on this piece! My heart is filled with gratitude to be a part of some of his musical creations!

Gold Ribbons
A song composed and produced by Eric Owyoung (artist behind Future of Forestry). I am honored to have a small part in this instrumental song, playing the violin near the end.
Taken from his website describing the song:
"The Curator," my latest musical creation, transcends being just a song; it's a journey into the world of an elderly museum curator. After the museum's doors close and the visitors depart, he remains amidst the historical artifacts he's dedicated his life to preserving. It's then that he embarks on a remarkable voyage of imagination, becoming an adventurer, a warrior, and a hero in his own fantasy realm.
The Curator
Heart-tugging song written by Lisa Rono in loving memory of her daughter Camilla, who sadly passed away in the third trimester of her triplet pregnancy. Our hearts and prayers are with anyone who has suffered the loss of a baby through miscarriage or stillbirth and beyond.
Produced by [Fe] with string work by StoryLight Strings (previously Strings of Light).
Proceeds for the first year will be donated to March of Dimes.
