Donnie Emerson & Nancy Sophia:
Donnie Emerson (Recording Artist/Musician/Songwriter/Producer) is the lead singer, songwriter, & producer of the hit song “Baby” from his Dreamin’ Wild (Donnie & Joe) vinyl album. His song “Baby” has been interpolated, and covered by acclaimed recording artist: Ariel Pink, DāM-Funk, and John Legend. In 2023 the Donnie Emerson bio-pic musical drama movie Dreamin’ Wild was released, starring Oscar winner actor Casey Affleck (Manchester By The Sea) portraying Donnie Emerson, directed/written by Bill Pohlad (Love & Mercy), and produced by Jim Burke (Green Book). Donnie’s original songs have been placed in multiple movies, television shows, commercials nationwide and worldwide.
Nancy Sophia (Singer/Musician/Songwriter) has had an extensive career as an accomplished conga, cajon, bongo, and hand percussionist performing on stages, recording studios, and songwriting (including movies and commercials). She also has a background in professional musical theatre, movies, television, and dance. Actress/Singer Zooey Deschanel (New Girl) portrays Nancy Sophia in the movie Dreaming Wild (2023).
For years Donnie Emerson & Nancy Sophia have toured and performed alongside each other in the US, Europe, and Asia. Their live performances consist of songs from Donnie‘s Dreamin’ Wild, and Still Dreamin’ Wild albums on Light In The Attic Records, plus new compositions they have written together, including “When A Dream Is Beautiful”, which they performed in the Dreamin’ Wild movie, & soundtrack. Their song was included in the 2024 Oscar Eligibility List for Best Original Song, produced by Grammy Award winning music producer Dave Cobb (A Star Is Born, Elvis/movie, Chris Stapleton) at the legendary RCA Studio A.
Family Worship Center:
Family Worship Center specializes in a strain of redemptive, 1970s-styled rock n’ roll that recalls the Rolling Stones, Leon Russell, The Band, and Delaney & Bonnie. The band formed in 2017 in Nashville, Tennessee founded by prophetic visionary, singer-songwriter and keyboardist Krissberg, but it has since relocated to Portland, Oregon. In 2020, Family Worship Center released the EP Sunday A.M. (2020) recorded by Grammy-winning producer Eddie Spear (Rival Sons, Blackberry Smoke, Lukas Nelson), and featuring musicians associated/who have played with The Band, Deer Tick, Ringo Starr, James Brown, Keith Richards, and Foxygen, among others. The Family’s latest offering—released September 2023—Kicked Out Of The Garden, features a core band of devoted musicians, and was produced by Portland go-to producer Cameron Spies (Spoon Benders, Shivas) who specializes in what he calls “mid-fi.” Kicked Out Of The Garden was tracked in Portland with additional recording done in Philadelphia and Ukraine. Kicked Out Of The Garden topped the NACC 200 college radio charts for 8+ weeks, was featured on the nationally syndicated NPR program Live Wire Radio, landed on multiple 2023 "Best Of" lists, and has gained hundreds of thousands of plays on streaming services.
