"I Will Sing a New Song" -- From Tamara Lebak Comes "The Psalms Project: Volume 1"

Public Radio Tulsa | By Rich Fisher
Published January 17, 2019 at 3:53 PM CST
Aired on Thursday, January 17th.

Our guest on StudioTulsa is Tamara Lebak, a Tulsa-based executive coach, organizational development consultant, and minister. She's also an accomplsihed singer-songwriter in the folk/roots/blues/alt-country manner, and she joins us to discuss her new album: "The Psalms Project: Volume 1." As Lebak has written of herself and her music online: "I'm a Universalist minister who believes that the Bible is ultimately about the relentless and persistent love of God. I come from a family of songwriters and am exercising my songwriting muscle with this project of writing a song a week based on the psalms (in order). I want to introduce a new generation to the psalms through music grounded in scripture but filtered through a lens of today." Also, note that there will be a CD Release Party for Lebak's new album at Soul City here in Tulsa Monday, February 4th.
