 Tricia Brock never set aside plans to record a worship project, yet it was almost inevitable that it be done. As the front woman for the GRAMMY-nominated band Superchick, Tricia found herself in a spiritual desert while in between new album recordings. Knowing she has always felt the call to lead worship, now was the time she used her voice to paint a visual picture of the kind of worship and love that she was called to by God.
Raised in a Christian home, Tricia and her sister Melissa experienced their share of adversity and struggles while trying to nourish the testament of their faith throughout their teenage years. After meeting Max Hsu (Superchick, Church Of Rhythm) at a concert in 1997, the three shared their desires to work with and inspire young girls struggling with the same feelings of depression and insecurities that they shared. This dream was brought into fruition and Superchick was formed. Six albums, twelve years and a GRAMMY nomination later, Tricia Brock – an ordinary person made well-known by her faithful use of a God-given gift for music – has become a role model to hundreds of thousands of teenagers.
It is only natural that Tricia’s debut worship album, The Road (Inpop Records), would travel down a contrasting – yet recognizable - path. Produced by her husband Nick Baumhardt (Stellar Kart, FM Static, Thousand Foot Krutch) in his home studio in Nashville, The Road is a refreshing new take on what we’ve grown to expect when we listen to the voice of Tricia Brock. This project is a collection of songs meant to breathe hope and to inspire new life into a battling heart. “We may be broken, but we’re never destroyed,” the album’s lyrics proclaim. Tricia wants to share that at times the listener may feel without hope, but there’s no need to fear. Hope, refuge and strength are always with us when we are with God.
The Road features new versions of the popular songs “Always” and “Jesus I Am Resting, Resting,” in addition to new songs of worship penned from moments deep within Tricia’s personal journal. The Road is an open window into the intimacy of her heart. Album standout “Breath Of God” takes a brush and creates an astonishing and beautiful image of how just one breath from God can give us life. “Lean” peers inside of Tricia’s soul to a time where writing songs of worship was so hard, feeling like God had completely disappeared. The song “Impossible” showcases the life and power in the name of God, sending a cry of victory in knowing that with Him nothing is impossible. The project’s first single is the stunning “You Are My Shepherd,” currently at radio.
As a voice for a number of charities and non-profit organizations, including Compassion International, Habitat For Humanity, and Make A Wish Foundation, Tricia has always had a heart for giving back. One of her daily readings includes James 2:15-16 which states, “If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food, and one you say to them ‘Go in peace, be warmed and be filled’ and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that?”
“This world isn’t about me,” Tricia explains. “If I have one purpose to fulfill during my time on this earth, it’s to bring someone closer to God through the love and compassion that He’s given me… however that may be. How can you stand in front of a crowd and preach the news of the Lord’s boundless love without doing everything in your power to model your life after His?”
If Tricia Brock is traveling the world with Superchick in sold-out arenas or leading worship as a solo artist for an intimate Sunday morning service, she sings songs that resonate with anyone who is longing with a passion for justice, an authenticity of faith or a restructuring of a heart’s foundation.
“Whether the message shared in The Road brings you tears of joy or pain, you are welcome here, and through the words that God has shared with me, my hope is that none of you will walk away unchanged,” Tricia adds.

6/7/2011 - Tricia Brock's Solo Venture, THE ROAD, Receives Critical Acclaim
Today is the highly-anticipated release of Tricia Brock's first solo effort, The Road (Inpop Records). Brock, who also fronts the GRAMMY-nominated rock band Superchick, is beyond thrilled to release this compilation of worshipful songs that God has been calling her to for quite some time.
Taking a departure from her well-known rock sound, Brock's The Road steers the listener down a worshipful path with a collection of songs desiring to breathe hope and strength, to inspire new life into battling hearts. The project was produced by Brock's husband Nick Baumhardt (Stellar Kart, FM Static, Thousand Foot Krutch).
In preparation for street week, outlets such as JesusFreakHideout.com, CCM, Beliefnet, Crosswalk.com, HearItFirst.com, Gospel Music Channel, NewReleaseTuesday.com, and ChristianityToday.com have shown their support.
Fans can also check out the feature in the June issue of CCM Magazine here. Upcoming features are also going to be featured in Rhapsody, Youthwalk and more.
What are the critics saying about the new release?
"The beautiful melodies, immediate hooks and resonant lyrics pervading Brock's solo debut, The Road, is a dynamite release and this large bandwagon is intended for far more than Superchick fans already in-house."
- CCM Magazine, 4 Star Review
"The Road is paved with nothing but clarity of vocals, affecting lyrics and the best of modern worship. Superchick fans will love this release, as will others who enjoy solid worship music. The delicate, measured side of Brock is every bit as interesting as the rock portion. Let’s hope this isn’t the last time Brock veers down the solo road."
- Crosswalk
"The Road is an excellent release and great worship album for all Superchick fans."
-CMADDICT

5/9/2011 - Superchick's Frontwoman Tricia Brock Shares Her Personal Journey on New Release, The Road
Tricia Brock, the frontwoman of the GRAMMY-nominated rock band Superchick, has announced she is releasing her first solo effort, The Road, on June 7th (Inpop Records). While Superchick is still very much a band and currently in the studio recording for their next project and on tour throughout this summer and fall, Brock couldn't resist God's calling to release a worship project.
While fronting her band, Tricia Brock never set specific plans to record a side project but last year, she literally found herself in a spiritual desert in between Superchick's album recordings while also constantly feeling a call to lead worship. She soon realized that now was the time she used her voice to offer the musical worship that she was called to by God, and she began paving the way for The Road.
The songs from The Road are a departure from the well-known rock sound of Superchick, yet will take the listener down a refreshing new take on Brock's contrasting – yet recognizable - musical path. The album, produced by Brock's husband Nick Baumhardt (Stellar Kart, FM Static, Thousand Foot Krutch), is a collection of songs meant to breathe hope and to inspire new life into a battling heart. “We may be broken, but we’re never destroyed,” the album’s lyrics proclaim. Brock wants to share that at times the listener may feel without hope, but there’s no need to fear. Hope, refuge and strength are always with us when we are with God.
The Road features unique versions of “Always” and “Jesus I Am Resting, Resting,” in addition to new tunes, many which are co-written by Brock and come from deep moments from her personal journal. The project’s first single is “You Are My Shepherd,” which is currently at AC radio.
The first on the project, “Breath Of God,” creates the image of how just one breath from God can give us life, while “Lean” shares a time in Brock's life where writing songs of worship was difficult, feeling like God had completely disappeared. “Impossible” showcases the life and power in the name of God, that with Him nothing is impossible. A special moment on the project is the last song where Brock is joined by her father on "Broken For Love's Sake."
The Road is also offering a digital deluxe version on iTunes that will include two bonus songs, "Desert Song" and "Your Grace Is Amazing." A two-week pre-sale campaign is already set with iTunes, and the advance pre-release with press kit is currently being shipped for review. Her digital EPK is also available by clicking here.
“This world isn’t about me,” Tricia Brock explains. “If I have one purpose to fulfill during my time on this earth, it’s to bring someone closer to God through the love and compassion that He’s given me… however that may be. How can you stand in front of a crowd and preach the news of the Lord’s boundless love without doing everything in your power to model your life after His?”
If Tricia Brock is traveling the world with Superchick in sold-out arenas or leading worship as a solo artist for an intimate Sunday morning service, she sings songs that resonate with anyone who is longing with a passion for justice, an authenticity of faith or a restructuring of a heart’s foundation.
“Whether the message shared in The Road brings you tears of joy or pain, you are welcome here, and through the words that God has shared with me, my hope is that none of you will walk away unchanged,” Tricia adds.
