Kayla Waters - "Bountiful" - Shanachie

In her own words: “What a marvelous delight to release my 4th studio album to the world! Anew is a stunning artistic offering that musically paints the unlocking of fresh terrains of life with keys of splendor. Last year, I was blessed with the covenant of marriage and becoming a wife {Mrs. Waters Medley}, has been a soft altering point overflowing with gems of promise. Simultaneously, who I am graced to be as a faith-filled pianist, composer and producer has also “crescendoed” beautifully this past year. With adoration, I am elated to sweetly bring you this gift of passionate, heartfelt music. The beauty of the majestic mountains and God’s creation are a resounding motif throughout this intimate bouquet of pieces. Naturally and musically, the parallelism of earth’s bounty and how it illustrates unmapped ground for me, is an echoing thread deeply woven in this creative work. I am thankful that in every new space of life, God’s keys of prayer and scripture have been the most beautiful compass.”
