SO... after much coaxing, encouraging and buttkicking etc from friends and fam... i'm finally putting my songs out there.... it's always been in the plans but with life so full of church and united and travelling and all these amazing things over the last few years, it kept getting put on the backburner! and while i'm still involved in all those things, i'm writing more than i ever have before in my life and feel like it's just the right time to share... the songs are not necessarily the stuff i've written before (even though i'm loving writing that too) ... it's just songs about life, love, faith, thoughts... i'm learning something new about all these things each time i write... kinda uncovering what was already there in me all along... so the ball is now well and truly rolling... there's some really exciting things being planned and some pretty fun news to share over the next little while... AND there's more songs being written and recorded so make sure you keep checking back here and keeping up to date with it all... thanks for stopping by ... ! much love michelle x

“I have walked that long road to freedom. I have tried not to falter; I have made missteps along the way. But I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest, to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back on the distance I have come. But I can rest only for a moment, for with freedom comes responsibilities and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not yet ended”. Nelson Mandela
