I'm learning French by the way...

New things...

I'm focusing on my new band Redpath which features my two sisters and me. I have always loved country music and that's our style. It's been fun writing about whatever I want! There's so much freedom in that. For those of you reading, my sisters names are Torie and Ali. Torie has been singing professionally for the last 2 years. Ali is graduating from UW Eau Claire in December with an actuarial science degree. In January the three of us plan to put our efforts in to the band FULL TIME. This is so exciting for me because I've been working on a solo career for the last 4 years. Singing with my sisters is so much better than that! We just finished two new songs that we posted on our myspace. myspace.com/theredpathsmusic for those of you who want to check it out.

There's so much going on in my head right now and a lot is changing in my life. I'm sure I'll be venting a lot more.

Love to everyone!

January

I was able to stay really busy this month. I traveled to the Rocky Mountains and Seattle, WA. I started a new interim job at a church nearby and I've even had a little time off lately. My concerts out of state went very well. I led worship and performed at two youth events. Driving 16 miles up the mountains in Colorado was an amazing experience. My parents came along with 3 other band members. It was quite the trip for us. The Seattle trip was a lot shorter but just as fun. I attached a photo from downtown Seattle by the water. I'm getting ready to start booking for the year so I'm excited about that. I hope to have twice as much fun as last year!

Merry Christmas!

Wow... this month was a long one. I have had over 25 performances so far! I'm so happy that Christmas Day is near. It is trecherous out right now. The snow won't stop falling. It's beautiful when you can watch it from your window. I'm happy I can stay in tonight. Tomorrow I will start the day with an interview at AM1500 Radio, I sing at 3 church services and then... FAMILY! I can't wait. "Songs of Christmas" did well this year. I LOVE Christmas time and love those Christmas carols.

Last night my family (sisters, parents, Joe, my Uncle Mike and Kurtis, a friend of Torie's) caroled at Regions Hospital. It was magical. Our friend Kriss, who works at the hospital sets this up for us... 3 years in a row now! It's the most rewarding "gig". Sometimes I just don't realize what I've been blessed with. Good health for one! Last night put it all in perspective for me. This year I'm focusing on family as we celebrate Jesus together!

Merry Christmas!

THANK YOU!

Dear family, friends and fans,

Thank you very much for supporting me in the Wild competition. Your loyalty means so much to me; I wouldn't have made it this far without your help. It's a great feeling to know that I have so many people backing me up! Unfortunately, I didn't get the position I was hoping for, but I am planning to fill in for Sarah when I am available. I still have a lot to look forward to. I've got a brand new, full-length Christmas CD coming out this November! I thank you again from the bottom of my heart for your love and endless support!

I'm wishing you the best always!

Love, Lauren

Voting starts tomorrow!

Hey everyone!

Please vote for me tomorrow online at www.wild.com to be the next Wild National Anthem singer. It will just take a second! Please vote and pray I win! This would be a great opportunity.

Feeling so relieved...

Well, my part of the audition is over. Last night was a blast. One of my dreams came true. I've always wanted to sing in the Xcel Energy Center and last night that dream became reality for me! My family and some close friends were there. THANK YOU for your support. I felt I gave my best last night. The Wild fans were great. I had some great feedback too. We'll just have to see what happens :)


I'm back in the studio now recording the new Christmas CD. Look for it at the end of October.
