Bar­low­Girl is set to per­form at Heav­en Fest on July 31. Here’s a sto­ry that ran in The Den­ver Post when the sis­ters were town in sup­port of their album, “How Can We Be Silent.” I found a copy of the CD and if you are the first to send me an e‑mail at lsomers@denverpost.com I’ll send you the CD.

Fight­ing is a word few Chris­tians embrace, but the sis­ter band Bar­low­Girl is poised for a knock-down, drag-out on behalf of peo­ple who are bat­tered and bro­ken.

On the cov­er of their new CD, “How Can We Be Silent,” sis­ters Bec­ca, Alyssa and Lau­ren Bar­low are posed in a box­ing ring, dressed in den­im and wear­ing a defi­ant gaze.

“This whole album is about fight­ing,” said Bec­ca, at 28 the old­est mem­ber of the band. “Fight­ing through the hard times. The whole idea is that it’s time to fight.”

Bec­ca­’s favorite track on the CD, “One More Round,” was writ­ten after the sis­ters heard a for­mer foot­ball play­er com­pare life to a box­ing match.

“No mat­ter how hard life push­es you down, you have to keep get­ting up,” Bec­ca said.
