Solveig Leithaug and her new album Time

Have you met Solveig Leithaug before?

She is a charming musician with sweet thoughtful music.  She has been around the music industry for many years.  She has worshiped with some of the most amazing singers/songwriters of our time in Christian music.  I love that she has some familiar names collaborating with her on this album with  Reba Rambo-McGuire, Cindy Morgan, Sarah Hart, Anthony Skinner, and Kelly Willard.  It is a lovely album to encourage our souls.

Get to know her a little here in an interview done through the youtube channel of Karen Power.




Solveig's music has a laid back country feel.  It is thoughtful and personal.  She writes from her experiences and deep love of Jesus.  I know many of you will love her sound.  One of her songs from her recent album is called Simple Things.  I encourage you to slow down and take a few minutes to enjoy it here.  When you are done scroll down to the end of this post for a little giveaway magic!

Banana Pancakes - Jack Johnson - Ukulele Tutorial - How To Play Begginer...




I so totally want to learn this one!  

I am "borrowing" Emily's uke while she is away at college. I have started learning some chords this week.  I found this video (among many) while wandering around looking for ukulele tutorials today. Here is my mini axe...



If I get brave there might be a video by the end of the month.... maybe.  I think the video idea scares me more than actually learning a new instrument!  LOL

New Tune... at least to me

I am really not one to love the new pop music very much.  I am kinda stuck in the 70's and 80's for the most part.  I am also very eclectic in my tastes, adding jazz, big band, classical, certain forms of country music, rock, pop etc... to my lists on Pandora.  I usually like people that don't land on the top 40's list very often if at all.   With that being said there is occasionally the odd song or lyric that strikes my fancy that is modern and popular just because of it's message or unusual melody/musical interpretation.  This particular song has a message that I love and that I think people... especially young women... need to know it.  It is about being who you are and not trying to be someone you were not created to be.  It is catchy and hip and has that great message...

Enjoy Estelle and Do My Thing on this Friday.

Have a great weekend!

New Performance

We have a new brass player in our home.  The little guy in the middle just started learning baritone about 6 weeks ago.  This is his first "concert" performance on the horn.  There will be many more to come.
