Five-song EP recorded in Ojai, CA. @ Carbonite Sound. All songs written & produced by Charlie Baker, Dann Gillen is coproducer on “That’s You”. The goal was to record a project with no more than 4-5 musicians performing live in the studio with the feel of a singer/songwriter vibe, to make a record by getting back to basics without a bunch of overdubs and heavy production.

Without Susie
I moved to the top of a mountain between the Mojave Desert and the San Joaquin Valley in California. I created all this music up here by myself (Wyatt Easterling and Rachel Mills co wrote several of the songs). And because it’s several hours from Los Angeles I ended up playing and singing everything though I duet with Rachel on Ripples on the Dance Floor. Hope you love the new music. Produced, arranged, composed and performed by James Lee Stanley

In Dreams
Bathe in the enchanting soaring vocals of Kimberly Haynes in her exquisite new release, “In Dreams”. With songs in English, Spanish, Hebrew, Sanskrit and Portuguese, the listener will be irresistibly drawn into the heart space with unique and lilting versions of familiar, beloved songs and prayers. “It’s an album born out of many nights of prayer with beloved sisters and brothers. Bringing these specials songs and chants to a wider audience is such a gift, and my hope is that they will stir the soul of the listener as deeply as they have stirred my own.”
