Group Members:
I have been so fortunate to perform with some really stellar talent. The musicians that I recently had the privilege of working with, are all truly gifted. I am currently trying to piece together a more "permanent" group of players in the Orange County area. If you like what you hear and you are a strong guitar, bass, fiddle, or keyboard player, I'd love to hear from you. I'm also looking for strong backing/harmony vocals.

Musicians that I have performed with include:

Bryan Celano, drums/percussion
Ray Martinez, guitar
Sarah Arslanian, vocals
Craig Davis, piano
Lydia Dervartanian, vocals
Tom Dervartanian, guitar
Ed Tree, guitar
Taras Prodaniuk, bass
Influences:
My number one influence in everything I do has always been God. Musically, I've always loved Linda Ronstadt, Trisha Yearwood, Karen Carpenter, Stevie Nicks, Martina McBride, The Eagles, Kenny Loggins, Fleetwood Mac, Chrissie Hynde and Alison Krauss ~ to name a few!
Sounds Like:
Me.....with some hints of my favorite influences perhaps.

About Alexandra Celano
Thank you for visiting my site. I am a singer-songwriter based in Orange County, California. Not too long ago I lived in Los Angeles and was focused on completing a country-pop album. Always a spiritual person, I kept my religious/spiritual life separate from my music. Not by design, but rather, I wasn't open to the calling ~ not fully anyway. A few years ago, things changed. Whatever barriers had existed between me and full acceptance of God's grace began to crumble. I can't say what it was exactly or at what precise moment things shifted, all I know is that they did. I was hungry for knowledge about the Lord and desired to study and discuss his works, beyond merely attending Sunday services. In my songwriting, spiritual lyrics naturally accompanied my melodies. While I had hints of God in some of my previous material, I was now writing entirely for god, to praise his name and spread his word. I became a new listener of Christian radio and my ears continued to open. I met other faith-minded friends and mentors that provided additional positive influence in my life. Music became a ministry for me, something distinctly different in purpose. All of this is to say that I put my country-pop project on hold to pursue what I now know is my true calling. Currently, I am in the finishing stages of completing my first Christian album and I continue to share my message and ministry throughout churches, religious groups and other spiritual venues. I'm in the process of setting up my own publishing company so that I can distribute my printed Christian music to churches and other religious organizations. Many of the songs on my first album will have choir arrangements for performance in worship services and other venues.

I want to mention that I have a wonderful, loving husband (Bryan), also a strong Christian and musician. Together we have continued along our spiritual journey and have been blessed a million times over. Without God and my husband by my side, none of this would be possible.

I wish much peace and blessings to all!

Give it all to God: your past regrets, your present problems, your future ambitions, your fears, dreams, weaknesses, habits, hurts, and hang-ups. Put Jesus Christ in the driver's seat of your life and take your hands off the steering wheel. Do not be afraid; nothing under His control can ever be out of control.
