our daily relationship with the Lord. We set the standard on the platform which others will follow, so lead with passion, lead with purpose, lead with fire. When we believe what we are singing, and ministering, the congregation responds. Also, Scriptures direct us in Psalms 33:3 to play our instruments skillfully, so always seek knowledge and training to improve your skills!
[ WM ] Now it is exciting to see you step into the role of a signed artist with CURB / Word Entertainment. What is that like for you as you start out?
[ Carly ] My journey as a signed artist has been amazing and honestly it just keeps getting better! It’ s been beautiful to see how the Lord brought a team to really come alongside me to empower me and the calling I have on my life. I have been writing a lot of songs that I cannot wait to share with the world. I pray that the Lord will use my music to bring Glory to Him and reach and restore hearts. It is honestly an honor to have the opportunity to partner with a label, and I am so thankful for my Curb family for helping me bring the vision to life.

What would I want to say to her? What is God saying to me?” and“ Why Should I Worry” just flowed out. It felt like a literal download.
My( adoptive) parents gifted me the production of one song with a dream producer of mine as a college graduation gift. I took the start of“ Why Should I Worry” to the producer, Dave Cook( Splash of Soda), and he knew we needed to finish it. Dave, my Dad and I finished writing the song together, and Dave produced it.
