Reviews of Songs of the Bride

[Click on the name of the reviewer for their full review]

Positive Reviews:

The Upturned Microscope:
I am very picky when it comes to music, and even pickier when it comes to Christian music. The past few decades have delivered some lamentable samples of Christian musicians who either have never read the Bible or are terribly confused about what market they’re targeting.

But every once in a while, we’re blessed with some real gems. One example that I have really enjoyed recently is Taryn Leia Prescott‘s Songs of the Bride. Heartfelt, genuine and biblically deep, her lyrics draw heavily from the Psalms (there’s also a beautifully rendered hymn), with an unembarrassed honesty about the pain and passion of the Christian life. The music is simple and beautiful, and her voice artful and sweet.


Just Being Here:
A beautiful voice! Strong and Powerful - full of spirit! If you enjoy being ushered towards the presence of God by music then Taryn can help you with that - I said it once, again it will not hurt ... Beautiful!

All the songs seem to have the same cohesive sound - really all backed by that voice! Most of them seem to have a heavy classical base, and much like the hymns of old!
