Grammy Nominated, Internationally Renowned Singer/Songwriter Pam Rose To Warm Audiences With The Intimate Album “Sacred Song”
Grammy-nominated and BMI “Million-Air” award-winning singer-songwriter Pam Rose conveys the sounds of life’s heavenly qualities in the empowering ten-track project, Sacred Song. Dropping on all major streaming platforms on Friday, October 8, fans can pre-order the release on iTunes by clicking HERE.
“Sacred Song was not intended to be a religious album. And, although I’ve been on a spiritual journey for the better part of my life, I don’t consider myself a religious person, in the conventional sense of the word.” says Pam. “But I’ve always been fascinated about how people connect with whatever it is that they consider ‘bigger than themselves,’ and with how faith and inspiration help so many of us get through the trials and tribulations of being human.”
Grieving the loss of nine loved ones over two and a half years, this multifaceted tunesmith banded together with writers Cathy Majeski (Reba McEntire, Wynonna Judd, Ricochet, Lorrie Morgan), Melissa Manchester, and Terry Burns, all of whom experienced losses in their lives, to start the idea for this project. Empowered by this common thread tying them together, Pam began pairing herself with some of the industry’s most celebrated songwriters. Each track delicately unravels the heavenly qualities of our uniquely human journeys and grounding itself in the belief that music possesses the ability to heal and comfort.
Audiences around the globe and at film festivals are already being impacted. The track, So Many Angels, is featured in the gripping documentary “Invisible,” which captured the audience award for “Best Documentary” at the Frameline San Francisco International LGBTQ Film Festival. In addition, as a sneak peek gift to the community during the pandemic, the soft launch of Pam’s contemporary rendition of Schubert’s “Ave Maria” has landed over 11,000 views on YouTube.

– Pam Tillis (Grammy Award Winner / CMA Female Vocalist of the Year)
