We caught up with Lori in Nashville and she explained her passion and love of music, “Music is food for my soul.  It's been a part of who I am since I could walk and talk.  We traveled watching my brother play drums and his band always seemed to become part of our extended family.  I would sing in every event and competition that came my way.  It wasn't so important to win or be the best but to just be part of it all.

I found that as I got older, writing was a great way to release all my feelings and thoughts.  I have a lot of poetry that I've written,” she explains.

“Then I met Robert Hammerstrom and asked if he could help me make a demo and he did. It started with just a CD with a few cover songs on it.  I didn't really have a plan, but I knew to just keep taking steps forward and things would happen the way they were supposed to. After that we just started working together at his piano writing our first original song and then it just blossomed after that. The first original song seemed to come to us very easily and along the way Robert would teach me the proper format of song writing. We've intentionally created songs from different genres to show variety and have had a great working relationship for the past 7 years.”
