Kenotic Metanoia

Flyleaf vocalist Lacey Sturm announced the release of the Kenotic Metanoia Deluxe Edition on June 28th, 2024. This highly anticipated release featured a brand new track with renowned violinist Lindsey Stirling, along with early demo versions of most of the LP tracks produced in collaboration with Korey Cooper of Skillet and Josh Sturm. Fans were also treated to three live recordings from the SiriusXM Octane quarantine sessions.
In celebration of the album release, Lacey Sturm embarked on the Kenotic Metanoia Tour alongside Islander and Amethyst Michelle, which kicked off in Frenchtown, NJ, on June 28th.
The album was originally released November 17th, 2023.
The Deluxe Edition of Kenotic Metanoia features 11 bonus tracks. The bonus disc includes a previously unreleased song plus several demos and live performances.
The album's cryptic title, derived from Greek roots, combines "kenosis," symbolizing self-emptying, and "metanoia," denoting profound transformation. Lacey Sturm explains that the title encapsulates a pivotal moment when one perceives a previously unseen truth about reality, challenging individuals to confront and respond to that truth—a summons to discard an outdated version of oneself.
"All these songs have been for my own heart. When David sings the Psalms, a lot of the time he’s telling his soul what to do. That’s me too in this: telling my soul, singing what I know to be true."
