Biography

No matter how meandering the road, when you look back it seems you can see the entire route. I’ve played the guitar since I was a child, but it was always a private thing for me. However, the Lord had other plans and several years ago He thrust me into playing in our little community church.  That experience has been an absolute blessing in my life and led me from my country music roots to playing traditional hymns.

In the past few years, my mission has become clear to me. After decades of playing other people’s songs, I became – rather abruptly! – inspired to write.  My goal is to spread the gospel through music, and I take that gospel message very seriously; I have found my best work emerges directly from scripture. I hope to encourage others through music to open their bibles and focus on God’s word, and perhaps remind them that God’s promises are enduring and provide the only real peace on this earth.

I am active on social media sites, Soundcloud and Drooble.  Most recently, I have begun a blog (TraceyHellerMusicDevotions.com) as a resource for devotional experiences. The posts present the scripture verse, followed by the song that verse inspired.  Who knows, if they like the song, that may lead them back into their bible for more!
