Anadara Arnold
Anadara (pronounced Anna-dare-uh) was born and raised in Carlsbad, a sunny suburb of San Diego, CA.  Since she could speak, she has been answering the question “Is that your real name”?  Yes it is!  Her parents named her after the sailboat they sailed on their honeymoon. The boat was named after a species of a seashell. Writing her first songs at age 8, Anadara has always had a deep love for creating and performing music.  This led her to study music and theater at Syracuse University where she spent countless winter nights trying to staying warm by playing her guitar and writing songs.  After performing at a few open mic nights, Anadara soon found her niche in the local Syracuse music scene.  Upon graduating, she moved to New York City where she met her husband, Rocky, and continued to write music, play café’s and lead worship at her church, Harvest Christian Fellowship. Now residing in Nashville, TN, Anadara recently released her debut album, “Into the Unknown”, through Spring Hill Worship. Her songs have been recorded on various worship CD’s, played on radio stations across the country and have also been arranged for Choral Anthems. Her music combines her easy going, reflective artistry with her heart for honest, transparent worship. For more information, please visit http://www.anadara.com.

Carrie Elder
When Carrie was a child, her father’s assistant used to package up the scrap papers and anything that could be carbon copied from their office and give them to her as Christmas and Birthday presents.  Carrie was in heaven!  I guess we should have seen it coming that she was destined for the business world. Pairing her love for music and worship with business, Carrie began working in the music business world shortly after moving to Nashville, TN in 1999. She worked at EMI Christian Music Group for about four years in the Publishing department where she did everything from worship event coordination with the popular Worship Together conferences to pitching songs for Film & TV use. Carrie left EMI to work along side her boss from EMI, Rick Cua at his personal company, Rick Cua Entertainment. Currently, her schedule is packed as a brand new mom.  She delivered her firstborn son in June of 2007, Finley Gray.  With Fin at her side, Carrie keeps busy handling the financial & administrative side of the business that she and her husband own, for postural therapy, called The Egoscue Method, Nashville.  She also works assisting Kelly Minter and Anadara in their ministries. Carrie, her husband John and son Finley, reside in Franklin, TN.
