"Not overplaying, but giving the song what it needs"

Faith In Him

Watch

My wife Shaey had the honor of helping our friends daughter sing on her first recording. My son Devin had written an instrumental guitar song about a year ago for his talent show which he performed for. I sent the track to my best friend Lanny and he tracked the bass and sent the track back to me. I then went into my friends studio and tracked some drums for it. We were very happy with my sons first recording and thought that the song was done. Our friends were visiting us for vacation and my wife wrote some lyrics out for the song that were in her heart. Now the song is complete with vocals done by our friends daughter, which was her first time ever recording. Although it's not perfect she did a great job. This is a good step for her if she decides to pursue her singing. This is something that she can listen to forever and remember the experience.  I had the honor of making a slide show with the song and mixed the song out. I am not a producer, but think it turned out okay for the gear that I have. The drums were recorded in a studio that my friend tracked and mixed for me, thanks Nate Macy. I enjoyed seeing the confidence when she heard herself back. She said it sounds better than she thought, and I think it encouraged her to want to make more music. It is so awesome to see a spark in young people when they realize that they are good at it, and that they can do what they enjoy doing. Her heart for the Lord is amazing and loves the Lord with all her heart. She wants everyone to know that her faith in Jesus is what everyone needs. Listen and enjoy her first recording and let the words minister to you, which won't be hard with her smooth, soulful voice.
