Comments:

Sue Brescia uses her low, pretty voice to express hope and love in pop-py, soothing, inspirational songs. The lyrics are upfront about urging people towards putting fear behind them and finding hope in the heavens. Musically, the sound is old-fashioned mainstream pop with a strong overtone of New Age. Those who like this kind of music and want to hear this kind of message will find Hope Rising a sweet and uplifting album. (sophiagurley@hotmail.com)
