Here you will find some songs that we have done at Cry of the Heart that feature Maren. Here you will find tracks from the latest concert she did in April 2007, along with songs from the 2006 and 2007 Christmas Eve services. I have also added a couple of my favorites from a wedding Maren sang in about two weeks after Renna was born. Then at the bottom of the page you will find a growing list of recordings from a few weekly services that we were able to get a good recording. I have stacks of CD's to go through yet and hope to be able to add more soon. I hope you enjoy what I have so far as much as I do!
That's right, a demo CD and we are sending it to L.A! Long story short is that someone is looking for a backup singer and we are sending in an audition disk. We can't wait to see what happens, and will let you know if something does. At least Maren can actually say that she has sent in a Demo CD!

O Holy Night
Ain't No Sunshine
This is the song Maren wrote for Me with the intent to sing at the wedding. Plans changed when she realized just how hard it was going to be to breath in the corset. She was able to surprise me with it at one of the concerts we did at church. However, at the time we weren't set up to record services like we are now. So, we pulled it back out and headed over to church to get a recording of it to put on the website. Ok, I have to admit, I have wanted a recording of it to have with me in the truck too! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!!!

Maren has what I must say is one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard. I know, I'm her husband and I'm supposed to say this, right? Please take a listen and you too will know what I'm talking about.
Like all musicians, we all listen to ourselves and critique much harder than anyone else would, but I'd like to tell you how these recordings come to be. We have about enough time before each service to run each song and then it's go time. I just wonder sometimes how we would sound if we really worked on a fine tuned recording. Maren keeps talking about wanting to put together a Christmas album, so if you have any requests or know of someone with a recording studio, let us know.
For now I hope you enjoy what I have to this point.
