Rachel Fort - Houses (2019)

A debut EP with whimsical melodies, dynamic and powerful vocals, and heartfelt lyrics that explore the ins and outs of everyday life as a woman. Over the last decade, I've experienced things that caused me to lean into God like I hadn't before. A lot of times, that looked like me going to the piano and playing and singing my thoughts, or singing a new melody while rocking one of my kids. The songs I've written over the last decade come from my journey as a young woman, wife, mother, and follower of Jesus, and everything that comes with that. I've written worship songs by myself and with my husband for our local church. Worship leading is a huge part of our calling, and I love writing corporate worship songs for the Church. I have also battled with immense anxiety, & depression, and you'll hear some of that in my songs. These songs are honest, and I hope they will resonate with you as you listen. I pray my vulnerability can be a doorway for you to be honest with God, and to let Him meet you wherever you are. Also, that you would find that you're really not alone. I want you to experience a sense of camaraderie as you listen. To know that we all are figuring life out and we're not perfect. That is what so many of my favorite inspirational artists have done for me; put words & melodies to things I have gone through or am currently going through. These are songs about love, family, and faith. My heart is that my music would accompany you in your ordinary day to day, and that you would find the sense of holiness that comes in those spaces.
