MARY-KATHRYN: One Spirit
Combining a fluid lyricism with musical influences as broad and wide as Ireland, India, the Middle East and Africa, One Spirit has woven together a swirling, shimmering soundscape that is highly distinctive and exotic while still being accessible.
Spiritually-driven lyrics, an ethereal vocal style and a broad tapestry of contemporary world music sounds distinguish Mary-Kathryns music from the rest. Borrowing from French folk music, North African rhythms, classical music and other European sounds

I Timothy 3:16
By common confession, great is the mystery of godliness: He who was revealed in the flesh, Was vindicated in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Proclaimed among the nations, Believed on in the world, Taken up in glory.
I Corinthians 2:9-10
However, as it is written: "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him"-- but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.
Billboard Magazine:
"Mary-Kathryn is a gifted singer/songwriter whose music resonates with warmth and a hope-filled charm . . . But the most affecting instrument on the album is Mary-Kathryns lovely voice. There's a purity and clarity of tone that makes for soothing listening."
"You really blew me away at the Tom Jackson event. I was able to catch about 3 songs of your gig and was completely caught off guard. What a blessing you are to an industry that is mostly bland and colorless." Brent Manning, Vocal Coach www.singingsuccess.com
