“Seasons” Hallmark Film Placement

Posted by ROYAL Category: Uncategorized

Hello my friends – I have some very exciting news!!!

“Seasons” off of my first album released in 2009 has been placed in an upcoming Hallmark film titled “The Perfect Bride”.  I am beyond excited about this, as I am a huge fan of the Hallmark films!

I wrote “Seasons” when I was eighteen. I had been travelling back and forth between my small hometown in BC and Toronto, ON to record my debut album. My relationship had just begun when all this started happening and we had many periods of long distance. Writing music has always been my outlet, and it really helped me cope during the tough times of missing a boy. I was having the time of my life in Toronto working with my amazing team at Lenz Entertainment, but my heart was always so torn between enjoying these new experiences, and missing the boy I had fallen love with. He was my first love, so you know how that goes, it’s a whirlwind of emotions! One day when I was feeling particularly lonely, I grabbed my acoustic guitar and the lyrics just flowed through me. I’m pretty sure I wrote this song in less than an hour. I had been listening to a TON of Missy Higgins at that time, and was highly influenced by her music. That combined with the brilliance of Asher Lenz, Adam Crossley and Michael Jack brought this song to life.

It is a crazy commotion of emotions when I listen back to these songs and remember the stories behind them, and it almost feels like a dream to me now. They hold the stories of my adolescence, my youth, my failures and triumphs. It all feels so surreal. At the same time, I feel as if I haven’t aged at all. That I am still that teenage hopeless romantic, full of determination and passion to fulfil a dream. Although my sound has evolved over the years, I still carry the stories of my youth with me, and sometimes they fall back in to lyrics unexpectedly. I am so excited about this film placement, and also for my upcoming album “Heart of Shadows” to be released January 2018. I will be celebrating and watching the show June 10th, with a glass of champagne – at the stroke of midnight. It will be my birthday, so I will be celebrating one triumph after another! Thank you everyone for your continued support. You all mean the world to me 🙂
