Da band

I've been very excited about how things are coming along for this e.p. very. But to be honest, sometimes I start to feel myself get fearful and start worrying about things that needn't be worried about. As those around me keep reminding, just take one step at a time.

I'm very pleased that the first few steps have been as painless as they have been.

My next step? The band.

When I first started out on this journey of Nichole Porrata Music, I hadn't really considered a band. I think for one because I had just assumed I would be doing this on my own. I have since I started writing. The recording process was what really revealed to me how much the songs that I had written and currently write, call for a band and how much color and vibrance additional instruments add to these songs. So! This has been my prayer, Lord, bring me the right people.

As I have mentioned before, I am very blessed to be surrounded by a plethora of musicians and many friends involved in the music scene here in North Texas so I am confident that whoever the Lord has in mind will come out of the woodwork. But I still have to cling on to Phil 1:6, the promise that started all of this, that He will finish the work He began and for me this means, He'll bring the right people.

  1. I'm so proud of you, Nichole! You're going to do great things. I will pray for you to find the right people. (If only you were in Atlanta, I would really be able to set you up with some amazing musicians!) I'm not much of a musician myself, so I wouldn't be able to help much, but I'm good with prayers, so I'll keep working on that part of it. :) I love you so very dearly and I look forward to sitting back and watching the amazing things you do unfold to make the world a better place. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help.
