StephanieAbout Stephanie Boyd

Growing up in New York, Stephanie was drawn to the power of music from a young age. While she was originally trained in classical singing, Stephanie always gravitated towards more upbeat and modern music. With her debut album, Touching Sky, Stephanie combines her love of traditional messages with fresh music. Since moving to Utah, Stephanie has worked closely with well-known artists including Jenny Phillips, Tyler Castleton, and Michael McLean. She was also featured soloist with Sally DeFord. She has a master’s degree in environmental science she and her husband have enjoyed building and selling businesses together. Stephanie is married with four children (and one on the way!) and likes to read, garden, run and bake fun birthday cakes.

My Thoughts

Beautiful woman with God's gift for music and singing.  If I had to pick two songs from this album as favorites it would be, STORM BEFORE THE CALM and GOOD FOR THE SOUL.  Her voice is energizing yet calm and soothing to the soul.  Good for the soul.  Her husband and children are lucky to have this woman sing to them from her soul with such an amazing voice. 

The album is full of uplifting music to inspire you as you go through your daily routine. 

I highly recommend this album CD.

I rated this album a 5 out of 5.

Disclosure: I received a free copy of this CD from Stephanie Boyd via Book Blast Tours for review.  I was in no way compensated for this review.  This review is my honest opinion.

My Review of the Album "COME ALIVE"

I feel very privileged to be part of this tour.  When I played this album I let it play over and over. I would like to say I have a favorite selection but I can't because I enjoyed them all.  Some of the songs were fast and fun. Then there were those that were soul searching and inspirational. I will long continue to enjoy this album and spread the news of "COME ALIVE" so other can be inspired. 

The camaraderie between these young women is uplifting and truly a Blessing from God! 

A Sisterhood Worth Emulating!

I rate "COME ALIVE" Five Stars!

 About Mercy River 

With 13 children between them, it’s amazing that Whitney Permann, Brooke Stone, and Soni Muller have time for anything other than runny noses, sock hunts, and prying suckers off the van floor. But music has been a part of each of their lives since childhood, and is now a strong presence in their homes. 

 The three friends met while singing in the Jenny Phillips Choir and there found a common love for tight harmonies and sharing the gospel through song. Over the past five years, Mercy River has traveled all over the United States and Canada as a highly sought after ensemble, performing for thousands of people while testifying of the Savior. Each member of the group brings several years of experience performing, writing, and directing hundreds of firesides and concerts—as well as recording on dozens of inspirational albums. 

Their self-titled debut album was released in May 2008. “Beautiful Dawn,” was released in March of 2010. Their third album, “Higher” was released with rave reviews in February 2012. Mercy River is back with mesmerizing harmonies and upbeat vocal arrangements in “Come Alive”.
