Bri Bagwell - In My Defense

Release Date:01/11/2019;Notes:The CD's last song, "Empty Chairs," will strike a chord with her friends, peers, and mentors as a songwriter's lament. Bri sheds light on the constant struggle that every touring musician battles: the rollercoaster of how live show attendance, record sales, and ticket counts are the benchmark of how performers are judged in this business, and the toll the size of the audience can take on their heart each night. It's a song that let's the listener see inside of Bri's dream, and how important each set of ears is to her. Naturally, doubt can enter one's mind in any given situation Bri shares how faith in her dream can at times be a struggle, despite her gratitude and obvious trust in the path God has chosen for her. She beautifully sings, "I'm grateful, but if they only knew, what's behind three chords and the truth. They only get to see me at my best, but I've been cursed and I've been blessed, by the answer to my prayers. It's hard to beat the thrill of a high, when I play a sold out night and feel like God has put me there. But Lord are you still with me, when i see Empty Chairs".
