Peters,vanessa - Foxhole Prayers - Music CD

In Foxhole Prayers, Vanessa Peters's already-considerable songwriting prowess has risen to it's fullest stature, presented as a concise, gut-punching collection of songs composed of piercing observations of both the outside and inside worlds. Peters shines a bright light on the modern world, illuminating the perilous rise of populist politics, the seemingly incessant swirl of violence around us, the struggle to remain positive in dark times, and the need to stand strong against hate and desperation. The album is dark at times, but Peters reminds us on upbeat songs like "Lucky" and album opener "Get Started" that we forge our own luck from sheer determination and gratitude in the face of hardship.
