A few weeks before the break I sent an mp3 of Katie Stahl's track, "Christmas Is So Much More," to Nashville area producer Jim Danecker. Jim plays keyboards for Christian contemporary recording artist Michael W. Smith and runs his own studio, The Whine Cellar. I brought Jim up to Parkland to do a workshop with our students a few years back and he was gracious enough to agree to check out Katie's music. As it turns out, HE LOVED IT! In fact, Jim, Katie, and I spent an hour on the phone with Jim discussing the possibilities for the future of this song. Katie is waiting to hear back from Jim with options for professionally producing it down there so it can have a life after our CD. Jim also encouraged Katie to keep writing and shared with her some great insights on the way the music industry works.
Way to go, Katie! We'll keep you posted on what happens :)
