Three sisters are making waves in the contemporary Christian music scene with their soul-based harmonies and profound lyrics. Adding an authentic sound to modern worship. the trio known as Hinge Point is capturing hearts with their music.

Kalli Clare (20), Kassidy Laine (20) and Kandy Jayne (18) grew up in Millcreek and loved singing together. During the COVID pandemic, they started writing their own songs and posting videos on a YouTube channel that has more than 14,000 subscribers and 2.1 million views.

“We felt like it was something that would help us to spread light in the world when people needed some light and things to help them feel happy in a dark time,” Kandy said. “So we decided to start filming and posting videos and it just took off.”

One of the biggest surprises for the young women has been seeing how their talents have come together to make something exciting and new. They’ve had several opportunities arise, including a performance at the Salt Lake City Tabernacle on Temple Square in December, and they know they’re being guided by a higher power on their journey. 

The trio has come a long way from when they first performed songs and dances for their family. Their sound has matured, they’ve improved their harmonic skills and they’re learning to play instruments to add to their music. 

They are three of six siblings and Kassidy recently got married, which has changed the dynamic of the group a bit. Hinge Point doesn’t promote or focus on any particular religion, the women just want to sing songs of worship anyone can relate to.

“We do practice our own religion but with Hinge Point we try to keep it nondenominational Christian,” Kalli said. “We have been able to reach so many people. Just being a disciple of Christ and singing for other disciples of Christ has helped us reach a lot of people.”

Along with learning to write songs, harmonize and pick up guitar skills, Hinge Point also learned how to make and edit music videos and get involved with social media marketing. None of the young women had opened a social media account before Hinge Point started to gain followers.

The sisters said during every concert they perform, someone tells them they needed the message, the hope or additional support.

“Our strength is that we try to be prayerful and try to let this be guided by God,” Kassidy said. “And it works. God is using it, and He’s helping us to be places that maybe we wouldn’t be. But it turned out perfect because there was someone who needed to hear it.”

Their youth and energy resonate with listeners as they entertain audiences with upbeat music and positive messages. Rooted in faith and country music, Hinge Point has seen interest in their music grow as it’s been streamed all over the world. 

“We’re musicians that are spreading light through music,” Kalli said. “I think that together we do make a difference. No matter what specific religion you’re from, we’re trying to spread light.”

The sisters hope to have opportunities this year to bring their music to youth groups from any Christian religion through devotionals, concerts or firesides. Email [email protected] to book the group. Follow the group on Instagram or Facebook @hingepointmusic. 

“Listening to music during those hard, long COVID days just brought us so much peace,” Kalli said. “So I think as a whole group, we would want everyone to know that if you’re having a hard day or a hard week or a hard year, just start listening to good, happy music with good messages, and it invites this good, warm feeling into your life. It can change your whole life and the whole atmosphere of your life.” λ
