One Girl Nation CD GIVEAWAY


Any teen or pre-teen girls in your house?  Let me tell you about One Girl Nation!  One Girl Nation is the answer to the question, "What happens when 5 Christian girls form a pop band?"  

Lindsey, Kayli, Lauryn Taylor, Carmen and Kelsey are the girls that make up One Girl Nation.  I could tell you they've been compared to One Direction, or TobyMac, but really, the very best way to explain them is to say, "Hey, give this a listen!"  It's peppy.  I went into Bri's room while she had it on, and I was thinking, "This is catchy.  I like it!"  


Brianna likes it, too.  And let's just say, I'd rather have her listening to lyrics that say, "We're gonna live for Jesus while we're young," than, "It sucks to be me," from Avenue Q, you know?  Her favorite song is 1 Girl Nation.  


My favorite (of the ones I've listened to so far) is Turn Around.  Honestly, what mom wouldn't want her kids to hear, "You're never too far from a brand new start.  You can turn around."  I'd like to play that subliminally to ALL my kids, boys and girls, home and away.  That's kind of the lesson we're going for overall, right?  Nothing we've done can separate us from the love of God?


One thing I discovered with this review is that it's very hard to capture listening to music in a photograph!  This is Brianna loom knitting with headphones on.


She had the CD playing while her friend was over, and the friend said, "What is this?  I like it!"

Are you ready to win this CD?  Enter here!

    I'm sure my girls would love it. I'm not sure what would be my favorite song but I'd probably have one after the first week or two of it being in the house. (I did like we are young long ago)

    My oldest is only 8, so I have no idea what there is for Christian teen music :) But, my 8 year old loves music and would probably love it if I gave her a cd like this :) I'm with you - I'd far rather have her listening to something like this than a lot of the other music out there! Thanks for hosting this give away!

    My seven year old is constantly singing the songs from the American Girl Saige movie. We need something new to listen to!

      Funny what they fixate on, isn't it? We've got some Disney songs that are favorites around here.

      Christmas! My family thinks I'm weird, but I sing Christmas music in the summer, too.

    I'm listening to quiet right now. It's so blissful. I <3 TobyMac, though... My favorite is probably Eye On It.

      I can appreciate quiet (when it happens!). Do you like Mandisa, too?

    I've listening to Christmas music right now LOL. Although my favourite song is probably What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong.

      That was an interesting video! Seems like playing electric guitar on a roof in the rain would be... dangerous? LOL!

      That's a good one. I'd love to find Bri an old hymnal to try to learn how to play it on the keyboard.
