"Accomplished Songwriter Reflects on Life and Faith"

"Stephanie Pauline is a well developed talent and her good sense and experience shine through on this album.

Pauline crafts a variety of tunes - folky, twangy and flashy - endowing each with hooks, emotion, tasteful harmonies, and full bodied choruses.

Though she borrows from many genres, Pauline takes her cues from pop music, crafting radio friendly songs that build and explode in a way that catches the ear.

Pauline has an appealing voice that sometimes hints at an Alison Krauss influence, but it changes to fit her ecletctic catalogue.

Fans of singer-songwriters will notice Pauline's gift for lyrics.

Pauline's words are thoughtful and ably express her ardent feelings about her life and faith." - The Gazette

Bio

Stephanie Pauline Professional Bio:
Stephanie Pauline is a prolific songwriter. With over 400 songs written Stephanie serves as an artistic catalyst, imbuing listeners with courage as they drink deeply of life's great store with her; mouthfuls of humanity: elation/fear on a voice that both bleeds and triumphs in the same breath. Though she borrows from many genres, Pauline takes her cues from pop music, crafting radio friendly songs that build and explode in a way that catches the ear. As a songwriter her ultimate musical goal is to have songs playing on pop/rock, country, and Christian radio. Listening to Stephanie, one is reminded of great artists like Sara McLachlan, Paula Cole, Jewel and Alison Krauss, as her voice pierces the soul and leaves listeners aching for more.

Stephanie's sincere lyrics and compelling melodies draw people of all ages, and walks of life. "I invite others into an honest moment and hopefully encourage them in their own pursuit of truth and a passionate life abandoned to the only thing worth living for: love. I've been pretty pressed in life and I think it has produced a severity and vulnerability in me that people just lean into. It pulls things up from deep within them and unearths hearts.” This depth, both in writing, and in the emotional presentation of her material, is due, at least in part, to the difficulties life dealt out in force in her young life to adolescence. After what she calls five years of darkness she says God recovered her and renewed within her an inborn sense of music that has accompanied her all through her life in varying degrees. She says that songwriting came to her like breathing or laughing; it's just always been a part of who she is and what she does. She was encouraged early on in her passion for music by her mother who sang her to sleep many nights to one home spun ditty or another.

Stephanie Pauline plays piano, and has co produced all of her recordings to date. The last two of which brought her to Nashville and LA where she recorded with some of the industry's best studio musicians. She performed over 70 dates from 2006-2007, and 60 in 2009, and is gearing up for 80 dates this year. Her music is currently being played on over 500 radio stations worldwide, landing three of Stephanie’s songs in the top 10 on the CRW Global Inspo and AC Chart and also on the Euro NCM Chart this year. One of her songs has been used on a sound track in a film called "My Lawyer," and she has won numerous song competitions. Her talents have garnered her a record label offers, a recent nomination for an Independent Singer Songwriter Association award, and the industry’s attention. In 2004 More than Music Inc., the hub of her music, was made an official non-profit.

Tied closely to all her endeavors is her goal of funneling the profits of her life's work to worthy causes, world relief efforts, and social evangelism. Stephanie Pauline has chosen to waive her salary since the non-profit was made a legal entity in 2004 to help enable that. 30% of her concerts are performed in detention centers and drug rehab facilities around the country and she has been on several humanitarian forays, including a month long mission to an orphanage in Vijayawada, India. Stephanie has seen firsthand the extensive destitution that plagues most of this planet and it is her destiny to use her gifts to make a difference here.
