making a christian folk song with my fiance in my bedroom with no ac

We had no idea what we were doing… but this is us making our VERY FIRST Ross & Ava song!!!!
It was hot (the AC was broken lol), Ross only knows like 4 chords on the guitar - so most of this is just figuring it out as we go.

But honestly—that’s kind of the fun part.
This is raw, unpolished, and messy, but that's us. That's everything we want to be!

You’ll see the whole process: setting up in a 95 degree bedroom, trying to speed-learn random instruments, forgetting chords, stopping to pray, and then slowly piecing together something that actually feels like our sound. It’s not perfect, but it’s real, and we think that’s what makes it meaningful.

The heart of the song is simple: God is the best storyteller. We couldn’t have written our own story better than He already has. Even if the production isn’t polished or we hit the wrong notes, the point is bigger than that (and we kinda like that sound anyway)

If you stick around, you’ll see us mess up, laugh, argue with the guitar, record vocals that may or may not sound good, and then share that first little spark of something we’ll hopefully look back on years from now.

Thanks for being here for the beginning. This is the very first Ross & Ava song, and we’re excited for you to grow with us as we figure it out.

If you want to support us, subscribe so you don’t miss when the finished version drops, and share it with a friend who likes music that’s real, simple, and faith-driven.
