EMPTY CLOSETS

What It's like to have the world on your shoulders and all the set backs because of it, feeling depleted and defeated when you eventually fall asleep and then to wake up the next morning surprised you are ready to do it all over again.

The song is about a very vivid dream I had in 1996 about moving to emerald Hills far away and the vworld traveler I would met and fall hoplessly in love with her. Two years later everything in the dream came true when I moved to Park City, UT im 1998, a few years later one of my ski racing students came to see me in the hospital after I broke my neck. Our relationship blossomed from there. Now 18 years later we are still married and in love, her name is Elizabeth and she is my fourth wife.,

The Cry of War is a rallying song for the People and Military of Ukraine. The English version is already getting airplay in Ukraine. We have an agent in Ukraine, Roman Burda, and he is seeing to it that the song gets air play far and wide. Roman is also having the lyrics translated and finding us a Ukrainian Rock Star to sing the Ukraine version.  Roman will be playing blues harp on the Ukrainian version.

"Lost and Found" is an electrifying EDM hit that delves deep into the complexities of love, loss, and longing. With its pulsating beats and emotive lyrics, the song takes listeners on a journey through the highs and lows of a romantic relationship.

The verses paint a vivid picture of a starlit night sky, where whispered dreams and shimmering stars set the stage for a love story. As the protagonist dances amidst the lights, memories of a past love flood their mind, intertwining with the present moment.

The pre-chorus builds anticipation as shadows of the past merge with the present, accompanied by haunting vocalizations that echo throughout the track.

The chorus serves as the emotional centerpiece of the song, capturing the essence of being both lost and found in love. Amidst the crowd, the protagonist finds themselves tethered to the memories of a love that lingers like a melody, unable to escape its grasp.

As the verses progress, the bittersweet contrast between moving forward and being stuck in the past becomes palpable. While one character finds solace in new experiences and songs, the other remains trapped in a cycle of longing and reminiscence.

The repeated chorus emphasizes the cyclical nature of love, where moments of joy are tinged with echoes of past pain. Yet, despite the haunting memories, there remains an undying hope for a love that transcends time and circumstance.

"Lost and Found" is more than just a song—it's a sonic exploration of the human heart, capturing the essence of love's enduring power and the struggle to find closure amidst the echoes of the past.

Even before you get to his musical career, Gary Dranow has an exciting and impressive resume. A young equestrian turned Motocross champion, a clothing line entrepreneur turned mortgage broker, a renowned ski instructor, and an academy founder. Gary Dranow has undoubtedly grabbed life with both hands and squeezed a lot out of it.

It is something that is reflected in his approach to music, too. He has been playing in bands since the age of 12, when The New Invaderz saw him first tread the boards. Since then, he has been on a long and exciting musical journey, leading to, most recently, the album Destiny Road, which includes, amongst other subjects, songs about his experiences with Bipolar 1 Disorder.

Musically, he runs across the sonic spectrum with a freedom that few other artists allow themselves, making styles and sounds as eclectic as southern blues and rootsy restraints, heavy metal onslaughts, and understated balladry totally his own.

His current EP, Never Give Up, sits more in the middle ground of his sonic adventures, the perfect place from which to appreciate the quality and accessibility of his songwriting. The title track neatly blends rock and roots, Jimi’s Song is a lush celebration of his iconic hero, and Shimmering is a song that ebbs and flows between pop and a hard place. It’s the tip of the iceberg regarding his back catalogue, metaphorically speaking, but it is also the perfect place to first dip your toes in Gary Dranow’s sonic waters.

Gary is one of those rare artists whose wide and varied back catalogue offers something for everyone. Whether you like your music hard and heavy, understated and atmospheric, pop-aware and accessible, bluesy and blistering, or anything in between, you are assured to find not only something to like but songs to love.

And if you can’t find that in this vast and eclectic collection of his past and present songs, you may need to reassess your relationship with the musical art form.
