"I chose these songs because I felt like they were timeless classics, something everyone can enjoy listening to," says Lexi. "Disney music is iconic and even though there are countless covers, I wanted to share my version. The lyrics are awesome, and the arrangements by Lisle [Moore], Kendra [Lowe] and Kurt [Bestor] are equally amazing! I especially enjoyed doing 'Power of the Dream' - the music is so powerful, and Celine Dion is one of my favorite artists. Singing any one of these songs makes me feel like wishes and dreams really do come true!"

At two-years-old, Lexi Walker, the dynamic young songbird sang in front of her first crowd. A decade later, the angelic-voiced redhead from Salt Lake City, Utah signed to Portrait Records.
