Michael Zabrocki is a
singer and songwriter from New York. Also serving as the Director of Music Ministries for Holy Trinity
Roman Catholic Church and Public Relations and Marketing Director for Christian
Music Pioneer, that should be enough to keep three people busy. Despite
multiple responsibilities, he still has a fair amount of music output.
Songs have a soothing
feel with spiritual messages; more Christian easy listening than Christian
rock, and it works. Vocal harmony is layered with the instruments, giving a
sound that is full but not overpowering. At times it sounds like he is playing
the harpsichord, which rather than making the music sound old makes it sound
kind of timeless.
"Unless a Grain of
Wheat" felt a little forced to me, as if it were trying to hard to
incorporate scriptural passage into song. Other songs, in their simple
expressions of joy and gratitude, were more effective. I especially liked
"Welcome Sweet Morn".
