"Silent Night" by Tammie Lecque: A Modern Take on a Timeless Classic


Tammie Lecque releases a soulful rendition of "Silent Night," and we're confident that you not only enjoy listening but also love to know how this rendition came together. The inspiration for this rendition started under the shower. Tammie was doing some vocal warm-ups and playfully started to include little bits of Christmas music. The melody stuck in her head and continued to shape as she was making dinner and during her drive to work. 

Tammie Lecque - Silent NightThis creative process brought Tammie back to her roots. Rooted in her family's a cappella tradition as "The Bellamy Spiritual" (that was founded by her grandfather Pastor Chavis Bellamy) and inspired by various genres, such as jazz and soul, Tammie's rendition of 'Silent Night' brings a fresh, soulful take to this beloved classic. The lyrics remind us of that holy night where "all is calm, all is bright" as the tender infant Jesus slept peacefully. The lyrics speak of the shepherds' awe and the heavenly hosts singing "Alleluia," encouraging all of creation to join in this heavenly praise. 

Tammie's heartfelt rendition captures these timeless messages, messages that inspire and move people, encouraging us to reflect His love & light and look forward to the dawn of His redeeming grace. May Tammie's rendition of Silent Night remind you of the peace and wonder that Christmas brings into our everyday lives, and encourage you to spread some of His peace to the people around you.

"Back to Life" by James Bizak: Power in the Name of Jesus With Pop Punk Sound

"Back to Life" by James Bizak is a raw, high-energy pop punk track with a bold Christian truth… Whenever we are feeling broken or lost, we will find hope and redemption in Jesus.

Natasha's love for music came from her mother. She would wake Natasha and her sister up every Saturday morning to clean the house, which wasn't much fun, but that changed when her mother added music. It quickly became a family tradition, and has become her love, her therapy, and her passion, expressing her gratitude and acknowledgment of being blessed. Natasha shares: 'I have loved music, singing, acting, and performing since I was a little girl.
