Audrey Assad Releases New EP 'Death, Be Not Proud'
Singer/Songwriter Audrey Assad has released her new EP, 'Death, Be Not Proud' this week. The EP is a collection of 5 songs about resurrection and hope, inspired by the John Donne quote; "Death, be not proud, though some have called thee mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so."
Audrey shares, "This poem from which I quote has steadied my heart for many years, especially when I have brushed up against the reality of death or darkness." She hopes the EP will serve as a gift, "to anyone in need of a reminder that, as Donne so beautifully writes, 'death shall be no more; death, thou shalt die.'"
This new EP comes as Audrey approaches the birth of her first child. "Being pregnant, experiencing new life, and beholding several friends go through gutwrenching losses of infants both in the womb and outside the womb, I felt connected to these themes in an entirely deeper and newer way," Audrey says.
