With life on hold for the past few months, Chelsea Hamshaw’s plowing through the monotony one song at a time.
And she’s sharing her music on social media in the hope it provides a little therapy for friends, family and her community as the world faces such strange times.
“It’s a way I can communicate and share what’s on my heart,” Hamshaw said. “My music enables me to do that, and that’s why it’s so important to me.”
Hamshaw was born in Pittsburgh, where her father served as a minister. The family later moved to Bakersfield, California. After college, Hamshaw sensed a call to move to South Carolina, which is where she met her husband, Jason, who at the time was the youth minister at Prince George Church in Georgetown. The two married in 2010 and are now the parents of four boys.
