#16 Our Lady Star of the Sea, Help + Protect Us

“is an album of moments.

and tenderly narrated in Douglas’s whispery voice.”

Tica Douglas Wants to Believe by Sasha Geffen
“The Singer-Songwriter on God, Humanity,
and their beautiful new album
Our Lady Star of the Sea“
. . . explores that dance between belief and nonbelief (and non-nonbelief)
with the earnest curiosity of someone fascinated by the myths
that people tell each other over generations in order to stay alive.

Read Tica Douglas’s Theology of Uncertainty
The songs throughout are almost heartbreaking in their tenderness and beauty:
most of them consist of little beyond Douglas’s bone-brittle guitars and voice,
fragile as porcelain, and the melodies bob slowly, like paper sailboats on a lake.
