Judah & the Lion's newest album, "The Process," was inspired by singer Judah Akers' personal life and struggles. In looking towards going into the studio, Akers realized that he needed to be honest to be able to write music again. Inspired by Kübler-Ross' five stages of grief, the album became a song-cycle through the stages of grief through the lens of eventual forgiveness and hope. Having navigated "The Process," both Akers and partner in crime, mandolinist, Brian Macdonald have emerged with a record that is buoyant, impassioned and emotionally connective. The band has a reinvigorated sense of purpose with its aim to create music that resonates deeply, believing in music’s power to connect people and make them feel less alone in life’s journey.

For the one who has me and never let me go, and loved me in all the ways I need and more; you are and continually and in every way a giant among men. In every way you inspire and strengthen and love me through it all. Your love, sacrifice and diligence empowers forward. I love and am thankful you've never gave up and was there no matter what. Especially when everything was going wrong. ❤❤❤❤❤ You are thanked and loved everyday because of who you are.
My husband's name was Judah. He was the greatest man I ever knew, or still have ever met. Finding you and spending my journey with you has been a gift, a mercy, and the healing (and sometimes the heartache) that have kept me going and gave me hope. He is still the one person, with God, the greatest man I ever knew. And my blessing and inspiration. I love him with all I am everyday. And I love you for giving me a part of him everyday. And love with all my heart and thank those who stand beside you through the toughest of these.

I love you guys, your band, your music. I'd gotten my two teen boys to listen to ya also; the casual references to getting stoned make this otherwise great song a total loss for me. You're role models! And you speak so much truth and gospel. I just sent a grieving friend your song Getting Through It. Blessings on your continued songwriting; ya'll are truly gifted. Really enjoyed your tour w Need to Breath last November at Bridgestone.
Love to you both, thanks for helping me carry my cross too. Much love to the both of you and thanks to his shotgun- thanks for staying wide awake for Judah.
