2014 release from the singer/songwriter. Like Adams' other albums, The Mighty Storm is marked by strong melodies, the  band's understated, but muscular playing and the calm emotional intensity of  his singing. The songs on The Mighty Storm may have a placid surface,  but the soothing melodies and Adams' low-key delivery run deep to portray the  joys and insecurities of the human condition with a rare compassionate insight.. 'Hey Believers' is an anti-spiritual that blends hushed acoustic  guitar and long sustained notes from a churchy organ to deliver a message  that's equal parts faith and desperation. Joshua Grange's crying pedal steel and  Joe McMahan's reverb drenched guitar add a soft mournful quality to 'She Has  to Come Down,' the story of a young woman slipping into a self-destructive  vortex. Piano,  guitar and pedal steel augment the poignant melody of 'Around Us.' The lyrics  are the album's most positive, but Adams' whispered, aching vocals provide a  dramatic contrast, implying the loneliness that often resides in the heart of an  enraptured lover.
