NEAL MORSE is pleased to announce the release of "Sola Gratia", his new solo progressive rock concept album, for September 11, 2020. "Sola Gratia" was born from an idea of him to write a record based on the example of the apostle Paul. On the album, Neal collaborates with his long-time partners Mike Portnoy, Randy George, Eric Gillette, Bill Hubauer and Gideon Klein

The title "Sola Gratia" naturally has echoes of Morse's "Sola Scriptura" from 2007 about the life of Martin Luther. The music was recorded 'virtually' in April 2020 at the height of the Coronavirus lockdown with Mike Portnoy (drums) and Randy George (bass): "It's the first album we recorded from afar. I sent them the basic tracks and asked if they wanted to rearrange things, but they just said 'No, it's great', so they just played along and sent their parts back. It wasn't an easy way to make an album, but creative work always has its challenges, no matter how you do it.
