"I will praise you, Oh Lord, with all my heart", Psalm 138:1 Her praise – exuberant! Her worship – passionate. Her new CD – refreshing. With Praises from the Heart brings us into the center of Dana Mackey’s love for her Lord. At first glance, Dana comes across as quiet and reserved. But don’t let the demeanor of this Tampa native fool you. Out of her heart of overwhelming gratitude for the Lord’s unfailing love, With Praises From The Heart is Dana’s freshman project which consists of a mixture of gospel, jazz, rock, and other musical elements. God’s favorable response has thrown her into the vortex of the SE Regional (USA) Gospel music scene. As an accomplished musician, Dana’s style not only flows with the tone and texture of today’s Gospel Music industry, but dares to surpass current trends. Her lyrics are real. Her message is relevant. And it’s reaching out to people of various ages and ethnicities in a new and exciting way. As God has elevated her in ministry, Dana has served as an organist and worship leader for various churches and conferences throughout the Southeast. Among her many musical credits, Dana served as organist for St. John Progressive M.B. Church, Tampa, Florida for many years. She is currently involved in the music ministry at Grace World Outreach Center in Brooksville, Florida. Since the conception of her CD, Dana has had the priviledge to minister in song at various local and out of state churches and events. Her hit single "With Praises", is receiving airplay on various gospel radio stations throughout Florida, Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia and moving. Dana has also had the priviledge to appear on the Christian Television Network and attend the Bobby Jones Gospel Bi-Annual Retreat. Dana has also appeared as featured "New Artist" in various National Gospel Promos. As a humble Psalmist, Dana's passion is to worship God in spirit and in truth. As this has been a life changing event for her as she steps out in the boldness of God, Dana hopes that lives will be touched and God will be Glorified. With Praises from the Heart is produced and features musical arrangements by Gospel Artist, Minister Ernest Collins, Jr., of Orlando, Florida, (former music director for Pastor Clint Brown of the Faith World Church of Orlando, Florida).
