What is this project all about?

My debut album “Roots Within” is a collection of nine songs from the last 5 years that have arisen from the transformational process of being a young, single mother. Without solid ground
under my feet I was looking for my path in this world, and found healing in musical expression.

In an honest and comforting manner, my songs relate to my experiences and yearning to trust in the steadily changeable flow of life. They inspire courage to go your own (bumpy) way with dignity, and to (re)discover your inner home. They also contemplate the inner feminine fire and the
cyclical nature of women.

"Roots Within" reminds us of our roots and connection with our true self and our heart. My songs inspire inner reflection and give comfort, hope and strength in times of change.

It’s a purely acoustic production including, vocals, guitar, piano, banjo, double bass, hand drums, Native American flute and percussion.

What is the project goal and who is the project for?

The aim of the campaign is to finance my first studio album, which will be released in June 2023.

I want to share my music with you and with the world.
I want to touch your heart.
I want to inspire you.
I want to give you hope, courage and strength in times of change.
I want to connect light and shadow.
I want to remind you of your inner home - that sacred, safe place in each of us where we are always whole and perfect.

My music is for open-hearted people – the deep seers who are easily inspired by music. It is for people with a sensitive core, on an inner and outer path of healing.

Why would you support this project?

Making music has accompanied me very intensely throughout my life. For many years, my heart’s biggest desire has been to give my songs a home.

The birth of my son at age 24 has completely thrown my plans in the air and sent me on a very challenging journey. A journey in which the music, although always my loyal companion, has been almost impossible to fund in album form due to being a single mother.

In the spring of 2022 I realized that I could no longer use lack of money as an excuse to avoid starting the project. I followed the call of my heart and started production of the album in the recording studio. The time was ripe for my songs to be introduced to the world.

In order to bring my music into the world as an independent artist, I need your support! It would mean so much to me if you could be part of the launch of my first album and help me bring healing and transforming music for a new, conscious Earth, into the world.

How will we use the money if the project is successfully funded?

The first goal (3500€) will finance the rest of the studio recording costs and part of the mixing & mastering.

The next goal (5500€) will finance the whole production, including 300 physical CDs.

If the funding goal will be exceeded, it will enable me to use the money for promotion and the production of a music video.
