There is something quietly profound about listening to We Were Born To Glory, the
new record by singer-songwriter, arranger and producer Royal Wood. We hear
Royal celebrate life with the wisdom of a seasoned soul, tempered with a
youthful wonder. While the power of his last album The Waiting lay in its crystalline balladry, it only takes one listen to the delightfully up-tempo opening track “The Thick Of It” to
immediately realize Royal has turned a fresh new page. “This record represents a celebration of life and all the aspects of it,” he says. “Not just love and loss, but life on a grand scale - knowing that we are born as a seed of potential to be anything we want. Life is about balance but often we can get so caught up in the drama of every day interaction that we take for granted just being alive.” Royal Wood has laid the foundation of his career by writing honest music to much critical acclaim. With the release of We Were Born To Glory, he continues to win each fan through the intimate connection only a truly great songwriter
can make with his audience.
