Ever Be
I begin my singles celebration with "Ever Be." This is the first single I released and an earlier song on my album. It's a darker song that shows the struggle I came from. Some people were really offended when I released this song, I guess they thought all my music was going to be poppy and perfect. The song is about being strong to overcome challenges. When I was younger I use to be afraid that I would never be the person I wanted to be. I was afraid that where I was in life would cause me to never reach my dreams. Everything felt so far away and out of reach. That fear was the motivation that helped me overcome the challenges. Someone once told me that nothing good ever comes easy and that short cuts are not really the way out. I had to face my fears head on to climb out of a very dark hole. In hindsight now that it's all been said and done I wouldn't take back the hardships for one second because I love the person the challenges made me become. If anything I hope people take the message of my song; that they should never give up.
Moving from San Diego to Buffalo was the most humbling experience of my life. I had everything going for me in my home town but my heart felt dark. For years I tried what seemed like everything to get my music heard and finish my first album. I dealt with false hopes from record labels. People who said they wanted to work with me but all they really wanted was my money. I developed a strong but dark heart because the thing that meant the most to me, my music, was being trampled on and not taken serious. I was pissed. I buckled down and said that if I want to cut a record I'm going to have to do it myself. So I started the journey making The Ride. I had to move. I can't call an album The Ride without physically going on a journey. I wanted to test myself and I wanted to spiritually set myself free. In a matter of a day I just did it. I packed my car with my clothes, music equipment and cat. With only a thousand dollars and printed google directions I took off to Buffalo. I told my friends and family I was going on a road trip and I was taking off the rest of the year. They all thought I was crazy.
Kitty ready to go on our road trip.

Fates Lover
After doing something drastic, like moving across country, it really made me stop and think about time. Am I living is perspective? Did I make the right choices? The what if sinks in. I could go my whole life wondering instead of living it up and being thankful for what is.
Trust me, when I took my leap of faith I thought about looking back. In fact, I wrote a whole song about it... #FatesLover. I have closure with this song because I love my life so much I couldn't imagine it being any different. My struggles made me humble and thankful. Time is ticking away into a reality or a delusion... you choose.

Garden Grows
Love takes time. It is a garden that you have to plant seeds, nurture, be patient and let grow. When I use to rush things with relationships I got weeds. When I lusted, I got weeds. It took taking my time and doing the right thing to have #truelove. I'm so thankful to have my life grow into this. My song#GardenGrows is about having faith that you will meet your soulmate one day. I use to struggle with this and my cold heart believed that my soulmate either died before we met or I just didn't have one. I was very angry and bitter towards men. So I let music be my soulmate. It wasn't until my faith was restored that I believed God did have someone for me.

All Falls Down
All Falls Down is about the connections we have with people even when we can't physically be with them. Sometimes it feels like a sad song but really it's not because it's about unconditional love.

Strong am I
It takes a strong person to get through tough times. Every single one of us has something we struggle with now matter how rich or poor, the color of skin and what religion we believe in. Struggling is real for us all. It took me #believing in myself #StrongAmI to create this #song. But after completing the song I realize #StrongAreWe. We can do tremendous things on our own but together we can conquer the world. None of us are meant to fight lives #battles #alone.#SinglesCelebration
This song features MC ZiLL. Katie Ann met the rapper after she moved to Buffalo and accidentally hit his car. The two discovered their passion for writing music and wrote this song together. A few years later right before they filmed the music video for the song MC ZiLL proposed.
The couple is set to marry in 2016.
