This is the third release from this five piece family band from Indiana headed by father Tom. Contained here on this six track (Kickstarter backed) EP (including the bonus track "Completely Yours") are songs reflecting life and faith continuing in their Americana style. The project was produced by Stephen Gause, who has previously worked with Jars Of Clay and plays percussion amongst other instruments. Tom, who leads worship at Westchester United Methodist Church, was involved in the writing of all the songs here. Lyrically there has been a slight move from the family theme of their debut 'Under Indiana Lights' to a more gentle universal approach with a strong hooks. "All In" is an extremely catchy song with Maggie Frye on vocals. There are also powerful songs like "Song Of Hope" and "Broken Places" which is a reflection on our failings and contradictory actions. All in all, an impressive release.
