All The Lovely Losers

From beginning to end, All the Lovely Losers chimes with a sense of exuberance and surrender, with a hard-won joy that can’t be easily shaken since it rises inexplicably from every point of defeat.Collaborations with longtime friends and peer-fans like PFR’s Joel Hanson, Sarah Groves, Andrew Peterson, and Waterdeep’s Lori Chafer, add additional sparkle to the disc. The theme of the album drives home one of the project’s fundamental assumptions: that none of us are in this thing alone. We might be broken, but we’re a community of the broken, bearing one another’s burdens.Or, as Henri Nouwen puts it, we’re all “wounded healers.”
