" Everything in the universe falls into some form of consistent rhythm or pattern and music is simply a way we as man can beautifully capture it"

Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going. - Jim Rohn,

In the hopes of reaching the moon men fail to see the flowers that blossom at their feet. - Albert Schweitzer,

“Music and song has always been and will always be a prayer for me and it is a privilege to carry that prayer into the world.  It is my hope that these songs will be a blessing to all who hear them.” 
 - Kimberly Haynes

Kindled by an awareness of divine guidance and conscious connection with spirit, singer/songwriter Kimberly Haynes’ debut album “Awaken Me,” brings forth an uplifting invitation to discover a sacred space deep within the heart. The spectrum of her eclectic and enlightening vocal performance evokes both the tenderness of a mother’s touch and the ancient feminine power of a tribal priestess singing her truth. The essence of New Age is felt within the harmonious dance between world music, folk, soft pop and Americana in this masterful production of 11 devotional songs cultivated by accomplished producer and multi-instrumentalist David Vito Gregoli. 
While the style and feel of the songs reflect Kimberly’s greatest musical influences such as Shawn Colvin, Joni Mitchell, Alison Krauss and Sarah Mc Lachlan, her music harmoniously weaves inspirational heart-felt lyrics into a rich tapestry of world instruments to create poetic reflections born of a life of tremendous trials and blessed tribulations. “Having risen from my own ashes multiple times, it is my mission to carry music of the heart into the world. My life and my music are richer and deeper than they would have been without the challenges I have overcome, and my songs are a reflection of my journey to wholeness” she conveys.

Whether Kimberly is leading prayer services for her community, performing at one of many Southern California venues, or simply gathering her family and friends for a sacred meal, it’s all done with a fierce passion and commitment to connecting with the heart.   The highly anticipated release of her debut album, “Awaken Me” unifies brilliant performances played by some of the most well respected musicians in the industry such as Tina Malia, Christo Pellani, Peter Kater, Jesus Florido and Byron Metcalf. 

“Kimberly paints musical portraits from a diverse palette of influences…Her expressive voice ranges from soft to soaring with thoughtful and inspiring lyrics that touch the heart and illuminate the spiritual quest.  All in all, an uplifting listening experience." - Michael Diamond – Music and Media Focus
