The versatility of this brother is shown in cuts like “When We Pray”, an uplifting proclamation of the power of prayer, and the slower-paced “Known”, in which Wells affirms that God knows us and yet still loves us warts and all. There’s a hint of the 80s with the funky “Supernatural”, as with a rendition of the Earth Wind & Fire hit “September”. The title track, “Hills And Valleys” has 3 versions on the album and is a mellow offering declaring God to be there with us in the highs as well as the lows of life. A similar theme is followed in the lively “Never Gonna Let Me Go”. Wells revisits his Royal Tailor days with the Latin-flavoured pop track “All My Love” with its message of devotion to God.

Hills And Valleys is an album that delivers quality production, inspiring lyrics and an excellent mix of various styles of music, and so will be popular with many.
