Ade is a singer/songwriter based in Cheshire who since releasing this debut EP has opened for Philippa Hanna. This six-song collection was recorded at home on a fairly basic set up. The result is a raw (almost demo-like) collection of acoustic rock songs. What might be lacking in the production department is more than made up in the songwriting and emotional delivery. Songs such as "More Than Anything" and "On My Knees" for example are a passionate cry of desperation in difficult times while "You're Here" and "Heaven Is Near" are songs of affirming faith. This collection demonstrates the potential of this talented newcomer.
