We worked on the songs for our debut album, Lamps, for over a year, so we had a lot of time to think about our sound and the themes we wanted to address in the lyrics. In the end, though, we discovered that we are a pretty simple band. We want to be earnest and sincere in our music, and we hope our own form of melody reflects that. As for the lyrics – I sing about things that are inside of my heart. The fear and unbelief that burrows its way into my mind. I sing about Christ’s persistent work in my life and the experiences that make me the person I am today. I have a deep desire to write about hope, and wanting life to be more. That’s ultimately where we got the title “Lamps”. I was reading that verse in Matthew 5 about letting our light shine, and the idea of a lamp as a representation of that light came to mind. In the end, I think that’s what we want to be about. Whether it’s in who we are, how we tour, or what’s in our songs – we want to be a light – just like little Esterlyn was for us.
