My name is Sarah Elisabeth, and I grew up in a very large musical home. There were eight of us kids, and my dad was a music pastor. We were always playing instruments, and it was usually something with soul! RnB and soul pop are my favorite genres. I spent many years jumping in with other groups, and that's still something I love to do. Some of the groups I've enjoyed working with are the Blue Gospel Scripts, the Mile High Chapter, and Ron McMillon. But this past year, I started to work on my own releases as an artist! The two I'm sharing with you today are special to me! Ive always wanted to write a song about the impossible joy of the Lord! Even when life hands you a rough set of cards, He gives you a reason to sing! The other song is called My Darling Girl. Both of these songs were produced by a friend named DJ Nicar. He's pretty ridiculously talented! He has two adorable twin girls, and I have three daughters myself. So he asked me to collaborate on a song for our girls, and this is what was born! We love this song! I love being a mom, creating music, and living in this beautiful state!

Meet Jaren - The Lead Singer of the Band: Jaren is the quintessential “girl next door”, a eighteen-year-old as beautiful and independent as the rugged Michigan she calls home. She is also a musical savant. At seven years old, Jaren was mastering piano, guitar, and writing her own songs - and not just any songs. Her verbal panache expressed itself in punchy, soul-roaring anthems that took her audience by storm. Her style was effortless, her confidence infectious. Jaren had a gift. So did her parents. A thousand miles roundtrip from Michigan to Music City were a small price to pay to see Jaren realize her God-given potential. She enrolled in a high-intensity artist development program that taught everything from pop performance to classical orchestration. Her original songs are a musical powerhouse. Like the no-holds-barred performer who wrote them, these songs leap from the stereo into your soul. Her singles and title tracks sums up Jaren’s mission - to push back against the culture of fake and light a spiritual fire in her own generation. The daughter of two entrepreneurs who taught her to be a self-starter, Jaren doesn’t stop. She’s written over 300 songs, performed on 150 stages and a dozen festivals, and written and orchestrated her own Broadway musical of “The Great Gatsby.” She is also a passionate worship leader who never forgot the message God gave her at a retreat years ago: Your God-given purpose is to bring wandering hearts to Christ through music, and to shine God’s light and love into the darkness. With the launch of her first original songs, Jaren’s light is blazing for the whole world to see.

RachelA is an author, songwriter and worship leader who has experienced the incredible grace and mercy of a father who takes His prodigal children and transforms them into Kingdom citizens. "I'm so grateful that I now get to spread that message in so much of my work and my personal life everyday." Rachel’s mom recalls a moment from Rachel’s childhood that guided her parent’s musical encouragement. It was adult church choir practice and the sopranos just couldn’t find the note. The choir director pointed at three-year-old Rachel and commanded, “hit that note, Rachel.” She sweetly sang out in perfect pitch exactly what the sopranos were missing.

When Darren Rahn was working with Wayman Tisdale on the late great bassist’s chart-topping twist on “Ain’t No Stoppin’ Us Now,” the big guy gave the up and coming saxophonist, producer and emerging recording artist a sound bit of advice Rahn has taken to heart on every subsequent recording endeavor: “Stay in your lane.” Rahn’s tireless commitment to musical authenticity over the past 18 years has resulted in multiple Grammy nominations and 26 #1 Billboard singles as a solo artist/saxophonist, producer and mix engineer. The multi-talented, Canadian born, Denver based artist’s multi-faceted journey reaches yet another key milestone with the release of Rock The World, a hallmark album that taps perfectly into the Zeitgeist of these anxious times while revealing an ever-evolving artist at the pinnacle of his creative, melodic, spiritual and sonic expressions. #billboard #jazzartist #darrenrahn
