Hey, I'm Shawna Compton Game. This is Millennium Money, and today we have a millennial music chat with singer Ellie Holcomb.

Millennial Money with Shawna Compton game.

It will expand your brain.

This week on Millennium Money Lifestyle Thursday, you're in for a special musical treat.

So, some artists, they follow a creative poetry in their songwriting.

Some artists may be born to shine on stage in front of thousands of people, and some artists,

they follow a higher calling.

Singer-songwriter Ellie Holcomb follows into all three categories and is one special soul that permeates each note and each song lyric.

Holcomb just released her newest album, Red Sea Road.

And even though this album deals with a lot of life issues like loss, heartache,

and even trust in the crazy times and crazy world that we live in.

Ultimately, this album feels very positive and almost empowering at times.

Now, Ellie Holcomb is not the only Holcomb that we've had to appear on Millennium Money.

You may remember her very talented singer-songwriter husband, Drew, appearing a few months ago on a Nashville episode that we had.

Well, these Holcombs, they are a powerhouse of creativity and two of the nicest people you ever want to meet.

So enjoy our chat with Ellie Holcomb as she dishes about her new album, Red Sea Road,

how she does not let fear drive her life and how she went from being a science teacher to be a working singer-songwriter today.

And I didn't know I'd find you here in the middle of my deepest fear but you were drawing near

you were overwhelming

with peace

you'll let my voice insane

you're gonna carry us through everything
