How Can It Be [Bonus Tracks]

How Can It Be is the debut album by Louisiana-based CCM singer Lauren Daigle. After appearing on future labelmate Jason Gray's 2012 single "Nothing Is Wasted," Daigle signed with Centricity Music, which released an EP in late 2014 based around her soaring, piano-led worship ballad "How Can It Be." When the single hit the Billboard Christian charts at number 16, seven more songs were added, fleshing out the EP into Daigle's 2015 full-length debut album. Her powerful, smoky voice has drawn comparisons to Adele, and the album's soulful production offers plenty of punch and pop hooks. Daigle co-wrote much of the album and is joined on the song "Power to Redeem" by Tennessee-based duo All Sons & Daughters. ~ Timothy Monger
