 The music I do is not about me. I do this because I truly believe that God has given me a gift & passion that is fully to be used for His glory. I wouldn't ever get anywhere or be anything without the forgiveness, grace, mercy, and love of Christ.

I love writing music/lyrics about where I have been, what I have seen, what I imagine, what friends have gone through, etc. I've been singing in church and school since the age of 3 in choirs or little solo's...I believe that 7th grade is when I wrote my first song..that seems so long ago :)

Music to me makes this world a much better place to live in. It takes me to places that I want to go and have never been before. I don't do music because I want to be famous and want to have my name in lights..I do this music that God has put inside me because I want to bless people....show them that they aren't alone in this crazy world we are living in.

Maybe I don't have much to say but what I do have to say I feel is important and I have to say it or I'll regret for the rest of my life not writing that one sentence that may change someones mind . . . heart . . . LIFE. Music is my passion. I cannot live without it!

 NATHAN TAYLOR

"I am part of a generation that says: "We will boldly and unashamedly worship God." That says: "We will not stop until His Glory fills the whole earth." I am part of a generation the will Rise Up with Healing in our hands. We are a new generation of Worshipers."

If there is a singular theme we hear from people when they first listen to Nathan, it's that he is a “David” to his own generation!  Nathan's music soothes the soul. He has a fresh sound that is inspired by a deep relationship with God.

Nathan is thirteen years old and taught himself to play guitar at nine years old so that he could praise God anytime and anywhere.  Only four years later, he has a catalog of over 60 songs. He has been blessed to share his gift throughout south Florida this past year, most recently, he got to meet and open for Sanctus Real at RockeTown Florida in Pompano Beach. He is currently rated number two on the local charts on ReverbNation in the Contemporary Christian, Worship and Praise genre!

He has a deep desire to reach his generation with the knowledge and love of Christ. He wants to see a new generation . . . his generation, rise up to the call of God. He feels called by God to build bridges and break barriers multi-culturally and multi-denominationally bringing a message of salvation to all of the nations of the world with the music and ministry that God has him. Through today's technology, it is much easier to reach out to others. With social networks like Facebook, he has been able to connect with fans in places he would never have dreamed of like S. Africa, Australia, Japan, and the United Kingdom.

He gives all the credit to God for his talent and musical ability, and has been a follower of Christ his whole life, understanding that his music is inspired by God to please Him and be a witness for Him.

On an adventurous side, he loves the outdoors, making trips almost every year to camp, hike, rock climb and go white water rafting. His favorite sport is soccer. He also loves to collect special memorabilia like rocks, coins, swords and guitars . . . MOST ESPECIALLY his Taylor guitar!  Find out more about Nathan on his Facebook Fan Page!

Her ability to travel has allowed her to be inspired by various genres and music and likes to infuse them all into her own style. For the past couple of years, she has surrounded herself with some of South Florida's greatest talent.

She co-wrote and recorded her first single "Memory Lane" with piano talent, Keyz, in 2008. Recently, she linked up with other local artists in a charity event for Chilean Hurricane victims performing a remake of "We Are the World".
