‘Light in the Dark’ is the exquisite debut album from American songstress Sarah Lucie, a musician who only recently discovered the true power that her voice possesses. A fourteen-track offering that features just the artist and a piano, it’s an hour-long cinematic experience that draws the listener into a deeply personal and profoundly moving musical journey.
Beginning with the hauntingly beautiful ‘Find Your Light’, Sarah sets the tone for the record with a tune that gently illuminates the path of self-discovery. ‘Ablaze’ then steps up to the plate in an equally stunning fashion, treating us to a vocal display that is both breathtaking and emotionally charged.
‘I’m Alive’ is a song that deals with embracing both the light and dark forces that beset one’s adventure in life, and expertly captures the raw intensity of Sarah’s vocal expression, while ‘Take the Lead’ highlights her exceptional range and depth.
Other personal favourites from the album include ‘Take My Hand’, ‘Open Your Eyes’, and ‘Not Today’. Truthfully, however, the entire record deserves your full and undivided attention. A simply remarkable offering from an artist who we are so glad has finally decided to share her voice with the world.
