CULTURE TUESDAY - Deborah Rose - Singer Songwriter

Sing A New Song, written by Welsh singer-songwriter Deborah Rose, was inspired by a Psalm given to her while working at HMP Featherstone on her ‘Spirit of Songwriting’ course, helping to rehabilitate offenders through expression and creativity. Shortly after, Deborah was asked by her local church to rewrite a Psalm for a competition called “Totally Psalmic.” She used this Psalm (149) as inspiration and wrote her first original hymn on what the Psalm meant to her. As HM King Charles III approaches 60 days reign, Deborah realised the relevance of the words of the song, with the dawning of a new era.
