Album Review
The striking piano chords of the title track instantly make you prick up your ears. Fresh and vibrant, Kat’s voice shines through. It’s a song about finding God and being thankful for His sacrifice. I liked this song very much but thought that the additional choir towards the end was a little thin, vocally. There’s some lovely saxophone playing from Serge Gorlin on ‘Rock & Salvation’ while ‘Restore My Soul’ is stripped bare, with just piano and cello accompaniment. This works really well and makes the song both intimate and powerful. Kat says; “All of the songs have been written from experiences - or a longing to encourage people that matter what we go through we have a God who is totally awesome and worthy of our praise.” A former sufferer from the illness ME, Kat sings from the heart on the poignant ‘My Grace Covers You’, as well as feeling overjoyed at God’s promise of His love, on ‘Just As You Are’. If I was being picky, I’d say that ‘Choose To Worship’ was my least favourite song. Nothing wrong with the words but I felt that Kat’s vocal range was being tested with this song. The last number, ‘Journey On’, develops into light rock, with the aid of some nice guitar work. Here, Kat’s voice literally soars and proves that there’s more to come from this young lady. 8/10.
