Out of Eden The Hits, a twelve-song collection with one brand new song, will release on August 1st to commemorate their career.
“This has been such an incredible journey for the three of us. We have been blessed to work with some of the most amazing people and to sing for an amazing audience. I want to send my deepest thanks and gratitude to our Gotee family,
Chaffee Management, The William Morris Agency, and all the numerous gencies, management teams, promoters, radio personnel and website managers with whom we have had the pleasure of working,” says Lisa Kimmey. “After 13 years, it's an extensive list, and I am so thankful for each person that put their time and energy into Out of Eden. Really, we're just three women that said "yes" to God as young girls, and we hope that our listeners walk away with the knowledge that God loves them, and that if they give their lives to His use, He can do amazing things with, for and through their lives. Thanks to all our fans around the world. I have loved praising God with you, and I will certainly miss you."
Andrea Baca adds, "We have been so blessed to minister and sing to so many people and we thank all of our fans for their support over the years. Though we will not be together as Out of Eden we will continue our ministry of reaching out to young people and sharing Christ with this generation. Thank you to all those who have helped us fulfill the vision that God gave us concerning Out of Eden."
“Now that our 13-year career is coming to an end, I can sit and look back with amazement at what God has done” Danielle Kimmey echoes. “He took three normal girls from Richmond, Virginia and gave us a platform on which to speak and minister to a generation. Wow! We couldn’t have done it alone, so thanks to all of you who believed in us, especially our family, our working family and our family at Gotee.”
