All Right Here
INO Records
There are certain artists that have the ability to extend themselves beyond their music to truly communicate the message of their songs in a way that is very personal and familiar. Sarah Groves is just such an artist. Her balanced blend of earthy, grassroots music and poetic reflections on life, love and relationships might give you the impression that she’s simply having a conversation with you rather than displaying her finely0crafted gift of songwriting.
Groves’ much-anticipated sophomore release, “All Right Here,” is a collection of songs that reflects a profound thankfulness for God’s gifts of salvation and grace. For Groves, these gifts are especially evident in the relationships with those around her.
“Every Minute” is a beautiful ode to friendship that begins “I am long on staying/ I am slow to leave/Especially when it comes to you’re my friend.” Groves reflects on her husband’s love with the stirring “Fly.” “You Did That For Me’ ponders the way in which Christ has given us freedom through His sacrifice.
Sara Groves will continue to draw comparisons to artists like acclaimed artists Sarah McLachlan and Shawn Colvin, but she continues to prove that she is one of contemporary Christian music’s most gifted singer/songwriters. “All Right Here” is sure to be one of the year’s most intriguing and inspirational albums.
