SAVE MY NUMBER

Changed Everything

Fields Of The Sun -SOLO PIANO

Traces of Light

Vengeance - Soundtrack

This song was written shortly after the Coronavirus took the world by storm. It was a swarm of emotions that I could only get of my chest by channelling them through the piano. Beyond the red is about my hopeful vision of the world after the pandemic is over. It's about being able to meditation and finding peace. It's also about finding a way to control the anxiety caused by the pain and the unknown.
