Shabbat shalom fine Chavah fans, I’m pleased to announce new music from a holy friend now playing on Chavah: Shawna Rae – Of Dreams and Dust Shawna Rae is a new and upcoming Messianic artist with a beautiful voice, a remarkable songwriting skill, and a passion for the Lord. She runs Proclaim Hebraic Music Fest , a new music festival in the midwest US that attracts a great deal of music talent for the Lord.

The songs are beautiful and stirring, creative and thought-provoking works for the Lord. I think you fine Chavah fans will enjoy.

FAQ: Why won’t Chavah play the next song?

Image
A lot of folks have written in, asking why Chavah won’t play the next song. **UPDATE April 2020: Quickfix: if you're having this issue on iPhone, update your iPhone to iOS 13.4, which includes a fix for this issue. Read on for more details. Q. “Chavah plays a song, then when the song ends, I don’t hear anything. What’s wrong?” A. If you’re on a desktop or laptop, reboot. If you’re on a mobile device like an iPhone, iPad, or Android phone, use the Chavah app: Chavah for iOS , or Chavah for Android . Q. I’m using the Chavah app, but it still only plays 1 song, then stops. A. On some mobile devices, like iPhone, Chavah must be in the foreground (not in the background) and your screen must be on.

However, some mobile devices, like Apple iPhones, impose superficial imitations on web-based audio. For

Shalom fine Chavah fans, and happy Independence Day to our listeners. Today we have a special treat for you: new music from veteran Messianic musician Carlos Perdomo! Carlos Perdomo – Studio Sessions Carlos has produced something truly beautiful here. I particularly am stirred by the duet Adon Olam – wow! The beautiful vocals set over strings, and with a rising ending; absolutely stirring.
