Julie Ingram Shares “Faith-Full” New Single

 

Julie IngramAs the joyous and spiritually-filled holiday season approaches, Longshot Records recording artist Julie Ingram celebrates the reason for the season with a tribute to her own family in “Thank God.*” The track, which is the second release from her 2010 project entitled ALWAYS REMEMBER, is slated to go for radio adds on November 28, 2011. Two separate versions of the song will be featured in sequence on CDX in the coming weeks (CDX Vol. 534 [10/24/11] and CDX Vol. 535 [11/7/11]); it will be promoted to country radio by GrassRoots Promotion-Nashville. The cut will also be available via PlayMPE and all major Internet outlets (Rhapsody/Amazon/iTunes).

Folks who purchase via iTunes will receive as an added bonus a free download of “Best Christmas Yet”from the Julie Ingram – 5-Pack CD Set.

“This single is my most personal and revealing to date,” Ingram explains. “With so much sadness and tragedy in the world, I have become increasingly aware of how truly blessed I am. Both strong supporters, their cup runneth over with love, my parents lived their lives by example…and for that I thank God!”

Co-written with Frank Wainwright, the piano-driven testimonial reveals Ingram’s undeniable affection and admiration for her parents and respect of the principles instilled–a practice that she has promised herself to exercise daily. The stark, simplistic instrumentation is the perfect complement to Ingram’s voice, stylistically reminiscent to songbirds Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn, who favored honest songs with positive messages. Adding to the depth of its powerful meaning and message, Ingram performance is accompanied by the echoes of a gospel choir and a horn arrangement.

“Each day I count my blessings / Read the bible for my lesson

Bow my head down and kneel when I pray / Lend a hand to my neighbor

To help ease his labor / Make the effort to go out of my way”
