She's also utilized her worldwide recognition as a celebrity and a performer to bring to light issues of female empowerment. As a woman of mixed race, she has proudly shone a light on her Mexican heritage. What many don't know, is that since the age of 14, when Lynda's career officially began, it was her singing and songwriting talent that shone through then and ever brighter to this day. Three years after the release of her last album Red Rock N'Blues, Carter will share one of the most emotionally resonant songs of her career, "Human and Divine" which will be released in the striking new audio format Dolby Atmos by Green Hill Music digitally on October 29. Produced by her longtime record producer Kyle Lehning, the song is nothing less than an epic with themes of love, strength and inspiration in her life resonating throughout. On the one hand, the song reflects the inspirational love of her husband, but it's also a connection to strength and the love found in the powerful female characters in Wonder Woman. From the first heartfelt verses, her unmistakable vocals burst out of the gate in a rich basso profundo and continue to anchor the ballad as it hits some truly heroic crescendos. Also appearing on the song are opera star Soloman Howard and Tim Foust on backing vocals, Viktor Krauss on bass, Pat Coil on piano and Steve Brewster on drums. Says Carter: "Music is in our souls, in our hearts, in our minds and in our bodies. We mark events with certain kinds of music, we attribute love to certain kinds of music. Writing this song, I felt extremely vulnerable and inspired. That is where the human and the divine come together. I started writing the song about my own love story with my husband, while I was in discussions about appearing in the Wonder Woman '84 movie. As I was cast as Asteria in the movie, it became about the love between Steve and Diana, and then the love that some of us are so lucky enough to have in our lives, the great love stories over the ages. My hope is that this song will inspire your connection to your own love in your life."
