A Quiet Heart – New Album Release

I’m excited to share my newest project, A Quiet Heart — a 9–track collection of songs shaped by stillness, reflection, and the quiet strength of presence.

The album blends singer-songwriter intimacy, Irish folk textures, and contemporary orchestration, weaving fingerpicked guitar, harp, fiddle, piano, and strings into a sound that feels both timeless and deeply personal.

Each song draws inspiration from ancient prayers, reimagined in modern poetic language. The themes move from lament to renewal, from rest to joy, capturing the whole spectrum of a contemplative journey:

• Still Waters — finding rest in silence
• Shelter of Your Wings — refuge and protection
• Out of the Depths — lament turning toward hope
• New Song for the Morning — sorrow transformed into joy
• The Rock Beneath My Feet — trust and strength
• The Broken and the Contrite — confession and renewal
• Lift Up My Eyes — a pilgrim’s prayer
• Every Breath a Song — celebration of life and praise
• Everlasting Arms — the embrace of presence everywhere

This is not an album of direct scripture settings. Instead, it’s an invitation into the universal themes of longing, surrender, and joy — music for anyone who seeks moments of quiet clarity in a restless world.
