Pat Barrett releases 'I've Got A Fire'

Press Release

Grammy-nominated artist Pat Barrett has released his fourth studio album, “I’ve Got A Fire” (Bowyer & Bow / CCMG). The brand-new, 11-track project is available on all platforms. Listen to “I've Got A Fire.” 

With this release, Barrett ventures into new creative territory, blending vivid visuals and soundscapes that are at once lively, playful, deeply moving, and reflective. For him, this project has been a personal challenge. 

"I’m about to say something that may sound strange, but I’ve spent a lot of my life doing the same thing," Barrett shared. "For me, these have been the songs that have challenged, encouraged, and moved me along in my faith." 

“I’ve Got A Fire” showcases a wide range of songs that reflect both joy and depth. Leading up to the album, he has released three songs that showcase the album's dynamic variety. The first single, “Praise The Lord Forever,” was inspired by Psalm 103:1, a track that carries the warmth and familiarity of a Sunday morning. The title cut, “I’ve Got A Fire,” pulses with an unmistakable ’80s rock energy, brought to life in a vibrant music video featuring Barrett’s own father, whose charismatic spirit embodies the song’s theme of unshakable joy in eternal things. On the more intimate side, Barrett released “Hard Part Of A Dream,” a raw and inspiring ballad he calls his most personal work to date. With honesty and hope, it explores the courage required to pursue the dreams planted in our hearts – acknowledging that, while envisioning them comes easily, the real challenge lies in the perseverance to see them through.
