Christie Lenée's unique guitar work is often compared to visionaries like Michael Hedges, Joni Mitchell and Dave Matthews, delivering profound instrumental compositions with heartfelt, consciously uplifting songs. Christie Lenée's pieces have been showcased at the NAMM Show in Anaheim and Nashville, live on National Television and Radio, on stage with artists such as Tim Reynolds (guitarist for Dave Matthews Band), Andy McKee, Amy Ray from the Indigo Girls, and Stanley Jordan to name a few. Her album "Live at the Hideaway Cafe" was one of three finalists for "Best Album of 2014" (Indie Acoustic Project Awards), including the song "Love Who You Are" nominated for a 2016 Posi Award in the category "Songs for Personal Transformation." The new album "STAY" is a collection of hopeful, inspiring songs featuring special guest Tim Reynolds (Guitarist from Dave Matthews Band) on 3 tracks. The album also contains 3 instrumental pieces produced by the legendary and Multi-Grammy Award Winning Producer Will Ackerman (founder of Windham Hill Records). These glorious instrumental pieces vary, from "Soaring Over Glacier Bay" with 27 cellos and a symphonic essence, to "Sunset Rebirth" with a bamboo flute, and the simplicity of "Sweet Little Piece" on the 12 string Veillette Gryphon Guitar. The title track “Stay” shines a bright light on suicide awareness and prevention. Christie’s message is that every person is special and has something unique to contribute to this world. "I intend to translate to the listener that it's okay to go through rough times. In those moments when you feel like running... whether from a job, a relationship, or running from life itself... Take a breath. Stay, and know that there is another way. You're the only one who can be you." - Christie Lenée The new album "Stay" was released on October 1st and will be followed by expansive touring in the US, Canada, Australia, Asia, and Europe in 2017. www.christielenee.com ---- PRODUCER and MUSICIAN CREDITS: Christie Lenée – “STAY” © 2016, All Rights Reserved, Protected by BMI (Christie Lenée and Muzik4Mind Global Publishing, BMI) ------ INTRO: Produced by Christie Lenée & Spencer Bradham. - Christie Lenée, Spencer Bradham and Colleen Bradham (Vocals) STAY: Produced by Christie Lenée. - Christie Lenée (12 String Acoustic, Vox, Background Vox); Joe Grady (Bass); Mike Pinder (Drums/Perc).
