Consequently, some assumed that Mindy only wanted to be a Christian artist. But our heroine felt there was more to music—and to personal experience—than could be contained by a single musical category. So she left her label to explore new avenues as an independent artist (Official Website). Her second album, Feather in the Wind, explores a greater range of musical and vocal styles. Mindy is working on a third album, to be released some time in 2009. She juggles family life with recording in Los Angeles and Nashville.
