Staples has written and recorded eight full albums and an EP. Her latest record, Love Broke Through was produced by Jeremy Casella and features musicians Phil Keaggy, Blair Masters, Nathan Dugger, Byron House, and many others.
Stephanie’s studio albums tell part of her story but it is in her live performances that she truly shines, captivating audiences and fostering a reflective and prayerful atmosphere as she pours the full depth of her life experiences into her music, not shying away from the reality of suffering and dark times but reflecting a light that persists through it all. Her songs are soothing, reflective, and hopeful and many have said that her humor and shared between songs have similar impact.
In August of 2023 of Stephanie released her 9th record Streams with producer Mitch Dane.
Stephanie and her husband Erik live in Franklin, TN with their two young daughters.
