About Tawana
MY STORY
"Tawana" writes and performs songs that have a unique way of sharing with others the struggles, victories, celebrations, praises, and just a "normal" day in various chapters of her life. Like a good book, with God's hand-turning the pages, she invites her audience to take a look at life through her eyes. Attending one of "Tawana's" concerts is more of an experience rather than just another show. Her music & lyrics go straight to the heart. She then, allows God to take over from there. Whether it's a secular event, a Christian music venue or bible based church, "Tawana" shares her faith woven within the context of her songs. This is well received by her audience which often leads to common ground and ministry.

Through the pages of her journey, God has blessed "Tawana" for her desire to honor him through her life and music ministry. The past two years, she was nominated for the Momentum Awards (Indep. Christian Artist Award) in 3 categories: Contemporary Artist of the Year, Song of the Year (2006-Living Water & 2007-Dancin' On The Clouds), and Female Vocalist of The Year. She released her first music project "Just Sing!" in November '2007 that she had produced in Nashville, TN. Due to this step of faith, God has given "Tawana" favor in having her music reach more people by means of traditional and internet radio. Shortly, after the release of her project, 88.1 FM in Kansas picked her song "Keep Christ In Christmas" as the #1 Christmas Song of 2007. In 2008, several radio stations in the U.S. aired this song as well as other songs from her "Just Sing!" project. Also, due to radio promotion efforts by "Christian Artists Int'l", "Tawana" received her first international airplay at an AM station in "Guam", an FM station in "The Netherlands" as well as other radio stations around the world (See Airplay page). "Tawana" is thankful that God is opening doors to reach more people through radio in her own neighborhood as well as around the world (Matt. 28:18 & 19).

In relation to partnerships, "Tawana" is an Artist Affiliate CovenantEyes.com which is endorsed by "Focus On The Family". She is excited about joining forces with this ministry to help others who may struggle with internet related addictions, or may just want to have internet integrity/responsibility in their home or workplace.

"Tawana" is also spreading her wings into other areas of ministry as a speaker. Just recently, she was certified as a Speaker/Singer through Stonecroft, a national women's ministry. "Tawana" is available for speaking & singing for women's, college & youth ministry/church events as well.


"Tawana's" desire is to allow God to use her to help others through the music he's given her. She strives to honor God with her talents and life as she continues through the pages of this journey that he's chosen for her.

"Tawana" is available for church and "family friendly" community concerts and special events in her local area as well as out of state. For booking inquires, please contact her at: Bookingtja@yahoo.com.

Hi Tawana. Thanks for visiting and for telling me about your music site. It's great to hear it's based in New Zealand. Have you ever been here? Thanks for the comment on my horse drawings. Tawana sounds a pretty name. What does it mean?
May you also have a blessed week.

Hi Tawana,

Thanks for stopping by appreciate the add and encouraging thoughts.

BC seems to have something for everybody, if there is a type of land description, we probably have it. Ocean, to mountains, to desert, to forests, to under growth so thick you can hardly walk in it. The forests have taken a beating in recent years because of the beetles but we keep trying to replant them.

I've never made it across Canada yet, but have been as far as Winnipeg,
that was 22 hours solid driving. Been down as far as Denver, Colorado. There was some excellent country in there!

Here's hoping that you have an excellent day and may God bless you richly,

Terry
