Letters to Ghosts
Letters to Ghosts is the third studio album by British singer-songwriter Lucie Silvas. It was released on 18 September 2015 through Silvas' own record label, Furthest Point, via Caroline records and later released by Decca Records in 2016 following Silvas' signing with them.
It is the first album by Silvas since 2006 and signifies a musical change from the pop/adult contemporary of her previous releases to a more country/roots style following her move from the UK to Nashville, Tennessee.
The track "Find A Way" was subsequently recorded by Trisha Yearwood for her 2019 album Every Girl. Silvas provided backing vocals on Yearwood"s version.
