Stacey's debut album ‘The Journey Unfolds’ won the award for Best Americana at the New Mexico Music Awards in 2017. It was also nominated for Best of the Year and Best Singer/Songwriter. The follow-up ‘There’s Magic Here’ was a finalist for Best Adult Contemporary at the 2019 NMMA.
In 2020 she was a winner of the John Lennon “Stuck at Home” songwriting contest, and in 2021 she was awarded the Rising Star Award by Nashville Hit Songwriters at the prestigious Red Lodge Songwriters Festival.
