Letting Go is the sixth studio album by Contemporary Christian music and folk rock singer Jennifer Knapp. The album was released on May 11, 2010, on Graylin Records.
James Christopher Monger of AllMusic concludes his review with, "Knapp claws her way through to truths both cathartic and disappointing, all the while maintaining an engaging, wounded swagger and a radio-ready sheen that brings to mind contemporaries like Brandi Carlile and Kathleen Edwards." [1]
Laura Nunnery Love of Jesus Freak Hideout gives this album 4 out of a possible 5 stars and begins her review with, "In 2002, Jennifer Knapp walked away from a successful music career and disappeared into the Australian outback. After eight years of silence, the small-town Kansas girl with a dry sense of humor is back, and she has a lot to say. Letting Go is both classic Knapp and unlike anything else she has released, an interesting dynamic that is sure to polarize fans. It is also some of her best work to date." [2]
Andrea Bailey Willits of Christianity Today gives the album 4 out of 5 stars and writes, "On Letting Go, the Kansas native's lyrics are grittier and more passionate than ever." [3]
In an interview with Knapp, Nancy Dunham of The Washington Examiner writes, "Produced by Paul Moak, the songs on the May release are something akin to a country/pop/indie journey through Knapp's recent life." [4]
Doug Van Pelt, writing for HM Magazine begins his review, "Singer songwriter Jennifer Knapp’s latest album, Letting Go, debuts at #73 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart." and concludes, "With a considerable fan base, critical and commercial successes, Knapp walked away from it all at the height of her career. After seven years of soul searching and time spent in Australia, Knapp comes full circle with Letting Go." [5]
All tracks are written by Jennifer Knapp, unless otherwise noted.
