I'm a fairly new fan of Anne Wilson's. A few months ago I was listening to music on Facebook Watch while I was cooking breakfast and this new voice popped up. It immediately caught my attention. A new voice and a song I had never heard. The song was My Jesus. Anne's voice is unique as are her songs. I am an eclectic kind of music lover. I listen to many genres across many decades. Among those is faith based music, songs I grew up hearing as well as songs that touch my heart. My Jesus was a song that caught my attention right away and I wanted to know the story behind it. It wasn't long before I found a video of Anne talking about the tragedy that was a turning point in her life.
Anne has talked about having aspirations to work for NASA from a very young age. When she was only 15 she faced a heartache many of us can't imagine - her older brother was killed in an automobile accident. In those hours and days following that devastating news, as she and her family were processing it and trying plan the funeral, music and her faith in God played a huge part in altering the course of her life. Although she had played piano, she had never performed in public. She found the strength to play and sing for the first time at her brothers funeral. That is a strength I can not even imagine! Born from the tragedy was a complete turn from the direction she thought she was going, to a couple of years of writing, recording, connecting with others who would be instrumental along the way and producing a record-breaking album. Among the achievements thus far:
Anne Wilson is the first female solo artist debut single to reach #1 on the Billboard Christian Airplay chart
