City Harbor Release Self-Titled Debut Album
New recording act City Harbor, comprised of singer/songwriters Molly Reed and Robby Earle, have release their self-titled debut album this week.
'City Harbor' was produced by Ben Glover (Britt Nicole), David Garcia (Mandisa, Tobymac) and Matt Bronleewee (Jars of Clay, Chris Tomlin).
In an exclusive interview with Louder Than The Music, the duo explained that the album's theme came as a surprise to them. "During the writing process we didn't really have one theme in mind, but hindsight is 20/20. After finishing the record and listening from top to bottom we realized a common thread of peace and rest in the Lord through out each song. We like to think of this record as somewhat of a journal of the past two years, and it's clear that the Lord was teaching the both of us about letting it go and trusting Him."
The duo's blend of organic and harmonic pop songs share about real-life issues, such as living out our faith in such a complex world. "In the midst of so much darkness, it's so incredible to sing about what's good and true," Earle shares.
The album's first single is 'Come However You Are', which is currently at radio. "God wants us to come to Him, not hide," shares Reed. "Rather than hide in shame, Jesus invites us to find our rest in Him, no matter where you are, no matter what you look like."
Another track, 'I Still Believe', was written by Reed during a season when she struggled with depression. The song was a moment of personal catharis that she hopes will resonate with anyone with the same questions she had.
