Synopsis

Amazon.com
As both a multiple-award-winning artist of Christian pop music and composer of modern hymns, Twila Paris walks in grace, surrounding her audience with light and abundant joy. With True North, her first adult contemporary recording in a handful of years, Paris continues this journey of servitude. Produced by Charlie Peacock, this collection of songs thoroughly integrates scriptural tenets, modern musical phrasing, sparkling band arrangements, and Paris's clear-water vocals. Never showy or overly admonishing, these pleasant litanies steer a course of clarity and thematic artistry toward the presence of God within everyday experiences, worship, and spiritual growth. Violins dance, cellos and Hammond organ add texture, piano and acoustic guitar chords circle warmly round layered harmonies and understated melody. Elegant and simple in its wisdom, True North benevolently beckons the listener home. --Paige La Grone

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Unlike some reviewers, I am squarely in this camp: Twila, anytime you want to work with Charlie Peacock is just fine with me! The "rock/pop" feel, to use a rather simplistic term, certainly comes from Peacock but is not popular in a negative sense (like cookie cutter songs). Peacock and Scott Dente surely leave their mark on this album but somehow make it all the more powerfully Twila's. For me, this is Christian music at its best. The synergy of Twila's gifts as a songwriter and vocalist along with Charlie's gifts of production and arrangement is just wonderful. Oh, and even better is the way they together manage to let the songs speak with emotional force and compliment each other to make an album. Now, however much I enjoy Peacock's influence--in this album and CRY FOR THE DESERT--I realize that others do not (notice the balance in the poll of favorite albums on her website). So I will just say my part: thank you both, and all those who helped, for this powerful album."
