Singing for “The American Bible Challenge” (to be aired on the Game Show Network) has by far been my most favorite gig, I think ever. It was a solid week (9 episodes) of hanging out with some of the funniest, most talented people I know. PLUS, all the trivia was about my favorite book! …Oh if only I could have been a contestant! (she said, shaking fist to the sky). The host, Jeff Foxworthy, was so kind to us the whole week, he was really great!

The Campaign Session
We had a brief, but rewarding session for the major motion picture “The Campaign”, in late June at the Sony Pictures Scoring Stage. My buddy Fletcher got a chance to conduct the choir as our fearless leader, and the lovely Sally Stevens, graced the mic with the us ladies.
Biffy Clyro Sessions
I recently had the opportunity to sing for the Scottish rock band Biffy Clyro. It was a blast working with these guys. Their much anticipated album “Opposites” is slated for release in 2012.
The Lorax Soundtrack
In addition to the voice over work I did as the “Humming Fish” (above) on the feature film The Lorax a few of our clips are featured on the recently released soundtrack to the movie. My daughter Clara sings the part of Marie on the song “Let it grow.” and I have a child sound alike line on “Everybody Needs a Thneed.” Check out those clips below!

World of Warcraft Sessions
Just completed another WOW session and as usual it was a blast. It’s so fun to see what language the composer comes up with. I can’t remember if “Chaw shing guani Bach mei long” means “Nothing goes better with a lite brew than a little Bach” or “We found Bach in the Brewery again.”
John Carter Sessions
I recently wrapped up a session for the score to the new Disney film John Carter as a member of the women’s choir. Here are a couple shots from that project.

South Coast Christian Assembly Christmas Concert
I really had no idea I would enjoy doing live concerts as much as I do. It’s kind of a new thing for me to do solo concerts and I’m really liking it. There’s a certain energy like none other. Here’s a clip of “Joy to the World/Go Tell it” from the Christmas concert I put on for South Coast Christian Assembly in San Juan Capistrano. It’s a rough and raw clip, but it’ll give you an idea of how much fun we had.
Ice Age: A Mammoth Christmas
Just wrapped up work on the Ice Age television special A Mammoth Christmas.Doing the mini sloth chants and tribal calls are so fun and unique. It is always a joy to continue work with long standing brands like Ice Age.

T Mobile’s Home for the Holidays Promo
I recently had the opportunity to sing choral on T Mobile’s recent promo “Home for the Holidays.” I always hope these little jingle I help sing on bring people a little Christmas cheer, It is always a pleasure to work on unique projects like this. Merry Christmas!
