The singer/songwriter – who also contributes to the other ABC soaps – has been called on by GH’s PTB to create a mood time and time again, and has met the calling, according to the positive responses. For “Just You And Me,” she tried to fulfill the request from on high for romantic cornball, but wound up falling for it. At this point, due to some issue with release clearance, much of her soapy music can only be heard online, at PureVolume.com and her MySpace page. The rest of her musically via Glow can be downloaded via iTunes. The Minnesota native’s come a long way from writing her own “little 4-year-old’s songs” while accompanying her mom on gigs to various coffee shops. Describing her grown-up songs as “very artistic, out-there music… unusual chords that don’t necessarily go together to create dark, melodic pop,” Sinclair cited the prosaic poetry of Pablo Neruda as her compass north, and the band U2 as her starting point. In praising her soap-related work, Sinclair revealed her songwriter leanings. Unlike most singers, Sinclair doesn’t just seek out the spotlight, but thrives by working behind the scenes, watching her songs fortify story. “After completing a song, there’s a sense of accomplishment, but then you want to see it grow and bloom and have a purpose. So it’s great to be able to write for soaps, film or other artists. The more you create and give, the more comes back to you.” –Soap Opera Digest, “Sing Along,” November 21, 2006
