Album Of The Day: Mama by Jess Ray

Album Art of Jess Ray's Mama album - A grainy photo of two women climbing a grassy hill, with the two women in the top left. Over the top of the photo, most of the grassy hill cannot be seen because there's a very large, bright orange 'Mama' spray painted on top of the image, taking up most of the space.

"To Hell with my own truth / Help me find my way back to you " Released this past Friday, this is the sixth album from folk/pop singer-songwriter Jess Ray. Some of her albums are more acoustic guitar and piano, and there's definitely a bit of that on this album too, but on Mama there is more of an indie pop vibe with more experimental and atmospheric sounds, a bit more fancy production to give the songs a more unique sound. Jess Ray does a good job of talking about her Christian faith, but also talking about life's struggles and in a way that bring me hope and encouragement. I just listened to Mama for the first time today, but it's already becoming my favorite Jess Ray album and I'm listening to it for the second time now.
