I had a wonderful talk with Gretchen Rhodes, who sings Greater Purpose on Ave Maria, Queen of Angels, I wrote lyrics and music and just found out it was nominated for HMMA music award. 
Gretchen Rhodes has been singing for her entire life. The daughter of parents who both have their Masters in music, Gretchen grew up classically trained. Most of Rhodes' adult life she has fronted Rock and Blues bands. Gretchen has been a part of Mick Fleetwoods Island Rumours Band for the last 12 years. Within that time the singer/songwriter has shared the stage with the likes of Blues Phenom Jonny Lang, hard rocker James Hetfield and legendary musician Steven Tyler to name a few. Recently Gretchen was featured on the song "Happy on the Hey Now" with Kenny Chesney on Chesney's album "Life on a Rock" which she performed with him for a sold out 65,000 person show at Patriots Stadium in Boston. She also starred in Chesney's  "Wild Child" video which has been viewed over 10 million times. Rhodes performs around the world but lives on Maui and together with Pio Marasco, producer and partner of their Embassy of Joy project, they continue to make Deep House Music. Collaboratively and separately Marasco and Rhodes have 75 tracks that have been released. Embassy of Joy produced a track called "Addiction " which was the #1 Deep House track in the world for three months.
