Ellen (and everyone), I believe the term she was looking for was "New American
Nusach".  That term has been used here to describe music written by Julie,
Debbie, Jeff, Craig, et al. that either uses traditional prayers from the
siddur, and sets them to modern melodies, OR entirely new prayers in English,
written by the same people.

We have had many discussions about whether this can really be called a
"nusach."
So let's just call it a "style".
