about

I have always been fascinated with religion despite being a devout atheist. I love exploring ideas of faith and belief and spirituality and often despair over my spiritual deficit.

For this album I wanted to include a bunch of hymns that could be sung by atheists. These hymns explore ideas about feminism, forgiveness, belief in humanity and love and the environmental impact on the earth by human beings, specifically the colonising kind.

lyrics

Let's agree that we all want peace
Yeah we do
But we don't, we don't need God
Coz I believe in us humankind.

Let's unite coz we all want love
And we'll get it
When we don't love God more
Than we love our own humankind.

Let's forget all the things that God has said
And done
All we need, all we need is to believe
In us, humankind.
