This is the self-titled debut for this 24-year old singer-songwriter from CoCo River Florida now based out of Nashville.

 

This EP features 6 tracks. It starts off with the popish sounding track "Spring Again," a song that deals with life as passing seasons. It then moves quickly into track-2 "Alive Again," that's all about God's grace.

 

On track-3 "Love is Worth the Fight," Lanae' takes a trip to the jazz influenced side of music. Track-4 "Stay" is about hope. Track-5 "Start Over," deals with trying to fit into what the world wants you to be so much that you lose your faith. It all ends with the melodic song "Quiet Place."

 

Lanae' has vocals like that of fine crystal with a wide vocal range. Her vocal's bring each word to life and drives home the song lyric's point.

 

Lanae' uses struggles that she's dealt with in her own life and overcome in her music.

 

Lanae' has overcome being a cutter. She says, " I tried desperately for three years to fix my broken heart by cutting, but only found myself with deeper scars. If not for the grace of God I may not have made it through." She adds that, "more than anything else, I would love to help young girls through my music and my own testimony, so they can see the hope and forgiveness for mistakes. There is a chance fir healing, and that is through the grace of Jesus Christ. I am a living testimony of that!"

 

Lanae' has talent, compassion and a message that need to be heard what more could you ask for from an artist? Do yourself a favor and get onboard the Lanae' Hale musical train.
