It is always exciting to see new artists in the Catholic scene. Featuring great songs and superbly produced by Dave Smith, this release from Billie Tarascio, a female lawyer from Oregon, is a terrific pop recording and establishes this artist as one of the best new female vocalists to appear on the Catholic music scene this past year. The more upbeat numbers, like the title track, are solid but the slower numbers are where the album excels. There is a haunting "Our Father" and a beautiful "Hail Mary" and a wonderful ballad in "Lay It Down". Go to http://billietarascio.com/ to support this new artist.
