Label: Hopeless Romantics Records
In Their Words: “‘Out of the Dark’ is a very special song that probably never would have been written if COVID and the resulting quarantine hadnât happened. I had named the album, but didnât have a track named after it, so when we were forced to stop recording in the studio and I slowed down, I decided I really wanted to write it. The song reflects on the journey that I have been on over the last couple of years, working on healing things in my past like anxiety and emotional trauma and finally coming into the light of who I truly am, working to see myself as God sees me. I wanted to share my story in hopes that others who are struggling might be encouraged.” — Joyann Parker
