(8,806 posts)For the past years, Kimberly has been a near full-time mom. That is why there are no CD's.
The Phoenix is really a song about how she has been struggling over the past years with removing the chains of a very challenging past that in many ways kept her from really opening up to her inner and outer talents. Entering this contest is a huge step for her and represents her saying to the world "I am ready now".
Obviously, with the incredible success she is showing in this contest, the world is agreeing.
Part of the grand prize is having a 4 song EP produced by Don Was. I'm hoping she wins this, of course. It's a huge game-changer.
Also, as a result of this several producers have shown interest in her. So I expect a full CD sometime soon. There's a couple youtube videos if you search her name. The three on the contest site are just the beginning.
I just got her to join DU, so I'll talk her into making a post here.
She has a website for her voice coaching. kimberlyhaynes.net.
Thank you again. Your words were sent to her and they are so very meaningful and inspiring.
