Somebody I'm Supposed To Be

I know there is something just beyond the headlights, somebody I'm supposed to be, croons singer/songwriter, Dave Pettigrew. I was moved by the both the music and the message. After all, aren't we all on that same journey, grasping at moonlight, trying to discover who we are?

Most of the songs on Pettigrews album are extensions of his prayer life, and a deep and complex prayer life it is, as evidenced by the first three songs on the project, Teach Me How To Drive, Closer To You, and I Will Follow. They came together beautifully, revealing an artist with a heart to encourage and uplift. Somebody Im Supposed To Be touched my heart with its recurrent themes of prayer and praise; of how we are all fellow travelers on the same road, in search of our own spirituality.

Beautiful lyrics and great melodies add up to amazing talent. Dave Pettigrew is a man with a lot of heart. While the music flirts with a slight country flair, Pettigrew manages to explore multiple genres, making it unwise to label this fine, emerging artist.
