Description

Inspiration can be elusive, a mysterious muse that lies in waiting, subject only to its own whims and the appropriate response. It doesn’t hint that it’s coming, but it still has to be grasping immediately, lest it just as suddenly slip away. David Grace Jr. discovered that by chance, and with his upcoming album, The David Grace Project, he found that it served him quite well. A sturdy set of songs sung with an assured eloquence and an emphatic delivery; it offers a distinctive blend of classic soul and rugged country credence. Scheduled for release April 26 on Artist Tone Records, the album marks the culmination of a career that began in earnest a decade ago and has accelerated ever since. Written in the aftermath of a year of tragedy and turmoil, The David Grace Project finds its namesake re-emerging with his faith fulfilled. From the heartbreaking “I Lose” a song about throwing away a true love after coming out of a nervous breakdown and not having a second chance to prove yourself; to the soulful sway of the opening track “I Would Look Good On You”. The smooth saunter of “Dash In Between,” to the swampy kick of “Convicted Man and the tangled tapestry woven through the autobiographical “Shovel,” the songs reflect both the confidence and credence of an artist that’s fully re-emerged and ready to share his music with the wider world. In many ways, the album is a catharsis, an expression of lessons learned and promises pursued.
