Staffordshire-based singer/songwriter Nicky Wrighte's debut EP, recorded in Tulsa and Nashville, contains six self-penned tracks that passionately relay Christ's victory and the writer's faith in God. As evidenced in the likes of the opener "Blood Bought" and the triumphant "Call To War", Nicky's powerful vocals exude strength and it is her substantial vocal performance that carries this release despite each song being set at more or less the same middle-of-the-road pace. Also, Nicky and producer Rich Gilliland have for the most part chosen a bog standard and very dry drums, bass, piano and acoustic guitar backing and adding a couple of lead instruments, varying the style and obtaining a better overall mix would lift Nicky's performance and material no end.
