Two things can be true.
You can believe in God and still forget to speak to Him when life is going well.
You can be genuinely happy for a friend's success and still wonder when your own chance will come.
You can keep the key to a house that is no longer yours.
You can pray for a man who hurt you without pretending you've forgiven him.
And you can bury your father while grieving the relationship you never got to have.
*TWO THINGS CAN BE TRUE* is a collection of five original Psalms-inspired Southern Soul, Hood Blues and Blue Soul songs about the complicated truths men carry through life.
These songs don't try to make every painful feeling disappear.
They give those feelings somewhere to be spoken.
There is gratitude beside disappointment.
Faith beside unanswered questions.
Compassion beside anger.
Love beside regret.
Not because these things are easy to reconcile, but because sometimes they are all real at once.
Inspired by the honesty and emotional depth of the Book of Psalms, this collection explores what it means to bring your whole experience before God — including the parts that don't fit neatly together.

THE MUSIC
Modern Southern Soul, Hood Blues and Blue Soul with intimate Street R&B and restrained Melodic Pain Rap.
Written for deep, weathered male baritone vocals, with different emotional performances across the five songs.
Blues guitar, upright piano, harmonica, warm electric bass, dry live drums and Hammond organ create an intimate, mature Southern Soul sound.
These are original songs inspired by biblical Psalms, not direct Scripture recitations.
Some things in life can be true without being easy to explain.
If one of these songs puts words to something you've experienced, you're welcome to share what it meant to you.
