Can You Hear Your Angel Sing?

Beverly Glenn-Copeland “In the Image”

“In the Image” is a piece of music that overflows with empathy and love, and that’s even before you listen to what Beverly Glenn-Copeland is singing over that “Apache” beat. There’s a sort of gently audio glow to this song, like West Coast golden hour light dimming slowly at sunset. Glenn-Copeland’s voice has a calm and loving tone, and nearly every line she sings is either enticing the listener to dance or to accept some life-affirming thought. None of it comes across as a hollow platitude – she sounds grounded in the reality of the world, and her generosity of spirit is entirely sincere. It’s not quite emphatic enough to signal gospel music, but it’s reaching for the same feelings and message. It’s just a bit more blissful and zen.
