*** Rise Up. Stand Tall. ***
In our darkest hour, in our weakest moment, we question ourselves. Am I strong enough? Is it worth the struggle? Am I good enough? Yes you are. It is in these times that it is most important to believe in yourself. Rise up. Stand Tall.
What's your "Stand Tall" story?
Post on social media (Facebook, Twitter) tag us and hashtag it #StandTall.
*** NEW SINGLE BUTTERFLY ***
The butterfly had always been Bonnie's symbol...
After a huge snow storm, Peg stood in the kitchen crying, at a crossroad in her life. She was begging for a sign from her sister Bonnie who had recently passed away.
Meanwhile, Kevin and their son Gavin were playing in the backyard and spotted a lone caterpillar sitting on top of a snowy bank. Kevin picked it up and put it on a tree branch where it began climbing towards the top.
Peg believes this was Bonnie telling her to let go and go after her dreams, to "Spread Your Wings and Fly".
NEW SINGLE COMING FOR CHRISTMAS!!!
Our hard work has finally paid off! We've got a handful of new tunes coming for you, w/the first single to be released before the end of 2016!!
