Psalms Vol. 2 was written and produced by Dave Yauk & Garden City amongst those in the community of Starkville MS, and in particular alongside vocalists in Redeemer Church. "Redeemer of my Soul" is part of a larger passion project to interpret, sing, and experience the Psalms through creative and contextual music. You'll notice that the album not only attempts to sing the Psalm but also make sense of the Psalm through the lens of its meaning being fulfilled by Christ. You will also notice that this project attempts to blend the musical styles of Folk and Electronica--venturing a new perspective musically in folk and acoustic music.
