Fourteen-Year-Old Star of LFC Tune Rising Up the Chart! UPDATED STORY

Opportunity knocked real hard on the door of Rachael Lampa who debuted on our flagship song "We Will Always Remember". Good thing she was well prepared and answered it.

The fifeteen-year-old diva's singing career took off last summer shortly after appearing on our CD when she was showcased at "Praise in the Rockies" at Café Estes in Estes Park, Colorado. After hearing her voice, scores of record producers converged upon her with recording contracts.

After weighing all of the options with her mother, Marianne Lampa, who oversees her singing career, she signed a record contract with Word Entertainment that resulted in her first CD with them titled "Live for You" due for release on August 1st. On that same day, she will also appear on the Jay Leno show to mark her second national television appearance. Her title cut "Live for You", released as a single, eclipsed Michael W. Smith’s "I Will Be Your Friend" by taking 6th place on Contemporary Christian Music’s Top 10 Adult Contemporary Chart.

Rachael is also featured on an upcoming CD produced for Pope John Paul II's "World Youth Day" featuring her in a duet with Grammy Award winning artist Aaron Neville.
