"I was moved to create a soothing album for those who are really hurting when I heard that my friend was diagnosed with a brain tumor. I felt called to put together a group of songs with lyrics that show God's love for His suffering ones. I wanted this album to focus on God's gift of Hope for tomorrow, both here and in eternity. I hope and pray that this CD full of comforting songs will comfort you and those you love."
Product Description
Gretchen Harris' third album, HOPE FOR TOMORROW, is the winner of the United Catholic Music and Video Association's award for POP/CONTEMPORARY ALBUM OF THE YEAR!! This very special honor was awarded on October 26, 2002, at the Hartke Theatre in Washington D.C.
For this album, Gretchen has joined forces again with producer David Harris. They offer eleven beautiful selections, including one they co-wrote, to convey the message of peace in confusing, troubled times. The theme of the album became even more fitting as the events unfolded following the September 11th attack on the United States.
The album starts with "I Am," as Bob Cowsill, of The Cowsills fame, joins Gretchen on a duet verse. "Hungry " is a song of total offering of one's self in prayer, even when hungry and broken.
The classic "Take, Lord, Receive" is affectionately revived with harmony vocals artfully sung by vocal group Spirit Alive. "Child of God" shows how, in the hardest times, Jesus simply holds us through it all. Phil Keaggy was the writer and inspiration behind the recording of "Reaching Out," a simple song of wonderment at the phases in life, and how we need to reach out God's hand to those in need.
John Michael Talbot's well-loved "Only In God" is a statement that God alone is our stronghold and our safety. The song is presented against the backdrop of a drum groove; with scripture verses and electric guitar woven through the interlude, this is a very moving piece.
The meditational "You Bless Me, Lord" perfectly fits the lyrical theme to the album, with the simple statement that God blesses us and we are His, even through the gravest circumstances. The percussion of Steve Reid, founding member of The Rippingtons, is showcased here. Liam Lawton's "The Cloud's Veil" has a message that "Even when the rain hides the stars... You are by my side." Piano and harp are featured, with Gretchen on harmony vocals.
Amy Grant wrote the comforting "Carry You" that calls us to lay down our burdens and allow ourselves to be carried by Jesus through the hard times. "Life After Death" was written by Gretchen and producer David Harris, as a sweet story of her mother's recovery and healing following the death of Gretchen's father. And the album finishes with an affirmation of God's healing power from Chris Eaton's "Wonderful World."

Another November has GREAT KARMA.......2005-11-14
The music and the lyrics blew me away. I cannot pick a favorite. All the tracks are great. This band has a TON of talent and I hope to hear them on the radio soon!
This sort of thing makes buying music worthwhile........2005-11-12
This is an introductory album, but it doesn't feel like it. There is a synergy between the instruments and the vocals that shines through - and would not come through, perhaps, if the album were engineered and auto-tuned and tweaked into a plastic-wrapped shell of music. It sounds like Karma Ghost is sitting in your car with you, playing music - only, having heard them live, it's unfair to make that comparison; however fun they are to listen to from the studio, the energy and dedication they give off on stage makes it ten times more enjoyable.
Buy a copy, play it for your friends, write them a note to say hello - and find out when their next show is! If you happen to be in the right place at the right time - currently Denver, Colorado - it's a fun-filled time you don't want to miss.
Great work.......2005-11-12
If you are in the Denver area...be sure you support the local band and see them live
New Indie band with great potential.......2005-11-09
This is not the case with Karma Ghost. Although the recording quality and mixing is not quite as good as most of the labeled artists (what can you expect, they're an indie band), the musical talent here is pretty darn good.
I'd say at least give them a try, and hopefully a second album won't be far behind.
P.S. they also Roxorz
