The Soul Conversation, a compelling new album that brings listeners on a deeply emotional journey, has officially launched. The 42-minute album, composed of 8 evocative tracks, tells the story of a man at his breaking point who is confronted by a voice from within—his soul.

The Soul Conversation unfolds as a lyrical and musical dialogue, capturing the pivotal moments of self-reflection that ultimately lead to transformation. This album’s narrative structure is uniquely crafted, each track its own chapter, with the first half of the album offering a perspective from the soul itself. Here, the soul speaks to the listener, exploring the universal theme of purpose and possibility. As the album progresses, the perspective shifts to the human self, capturing the struggles and raw emotions that arise in the human experience. The result is a layered dialogue between soul and self, ultimately leading the human—and listeners—toward transformation and hope.

The album’s soundscape artfully weaves introspective lyrics with soulful melodies, pulling listeners into the heart of a narrative that’s both intensely personal and universally relatable. Through its rich musical textures and thought-provoking lyrics, The Soul Conversation invites audiences to reflect on their own inner dialogues, encouraging them to rediscover their purpose and embrace the choice to live fully.

"This has been the most intensely personal project of my life. I felt the need to share it in hopes that it might resonate deeply with others who have struggled, or continue to," says Kovacs. "My reason for continuing to make music is the personal connection- reminding the listener that they are not alone, somebody else has felt the same way that you do. We can get through this together. There are beautiful memories yet to be created.”

While most of the instruments (vocals, bass, guitars, and keyboards) were recorded by Kovacs, drums were performed by Chicago-area drummer Keith Homel with special guests Rozzie on Backing Vocals and additional guitars, Ashley Rodriguez delivering powerful gospel-esque vocals on SoulShine, Tim Pryde of San Francisco-Based bands Pebble Theory and Monte Casino providing the guitar solos and colors on the last 3 tracks of the album, and Michał Łapaj of Riverside suppling organ and synthesizer to the final track SoulShine as well. The album was mixed by Kovacs and mastered by legendary mastering engineer Andy VanDette.
