Known as a writer/composer and performer, Dawnmarie along with a friend/producer Dominik Pages of Crystal Blue Studios in Tampa, collaborated in the works of a few of her original songs ranging from Pop/Dance mix, contemporary listening and country. Her music writing opened a window of opportunity and she was invited to record in Nashville with AMI Records in August of 1999.
