I always greet the arrival of a new Harold Payne CD with excitement and joy.

Harold is a superb songwriter and his songs are instant classics.  Take it from me, you will be thrilled with every single song on this CD.

Harold has a unique way with words and a very distinctive, soulful style of music.  It’s hard to sit still when you’re listening to a Harold Payne song.  

“Shine On” is co-written with Faith Rivera, and it has a fun reggae beat and an easy chorus that you will be singing by the first time through.  It is one of my favorite cuts on the CD.

I’m honored to be the co-writer on “Second Chances” which speaks to those times when you get a chance for a “do over” – magical and sweet.  

“A Rising Tide”, “Love Wins” and “Stand Together” are great call to action songs with great messages.  “Optimism Is Contagious” is a clever reminder that a good attitude and a smile can have wide spread impact on the folks around you.

Each of the songs on this CD is a testament to positivity, empowerment, and love.  With beautiful production by Rick Cowling, this is a set of songs you will play over and over again.
