A Quote from Julie Blue (Wing and a Prayer)
"Wing and a Prayer" expresses my desire to send out an uplifting message of inspiration. I write songs to keep me connected to this force of inspiration and find great joy when I can share it with others. I believe that sound is a powerful means of transformation and that singing connects us directly to our souls. The songs on this CD mark an incredible time of growth in my life and are pasageways through loss, grief and sadness into gratitude, acceptance and hope.
Many of these songs have been sung and brought to life by
my friends in the Singspiration Singers, a 60 voice gospel choir that I direct. The language of music is a universal one and has brought riches untold in the form of friends, community, love and support into my life. When I am singing my songs and other poeple join in, I feel the songs themselves have found their purpose. So if the spirit moves you, sing along! Julie Blue
