Reflections "I will change the world"
submission by Kathryn Virgen
Recorded by New Islands Music (Dad)

All music is original, written and sung by Kathryn Virgen
Recorded, mixed and mastered by Juan Carlos Virgen Jr.

This was a fun process to write and record this with my baby. We wrote "I will change the world.." on paper and Kathryn filled in the rest with her own words. I have been teaching her guitar, piano and singing since she was small so she made the melody, played the guitar and piano as well. I helped with input and the actual recording, mix and master. Let this heartwarming tune give you a perspective of how this 1st grader feels and how she would change the world! I'm proud of you big girl! Sharing is caring and will change the world!

Moments In Time

Magic Journey

Sunshine vibes coming straight to you from indie artist New Islands. This song is about getting back on your feet. No matter how big the "waves" in life approach, keep your balance and ride those waves back to shore! Surf along to this new upbeat and very wavy jam, "Ride the Waves".  

It's been quite a ride back to shore! - Juan

Ride The Waves

Sweet vocal harmonizing over a jangly guitar lick and beat, 'Bloom' bring's uplifting vibes and captures the nostalgic cassette sound of the 90's. This song is about FAMILY, LOVE and SELF-GROWTH.

Bloom

A sweet guitar lick, groovy bass line, and upbeat drums topped with melodic vocals. This song is about having a good and enjoying the moment no matter what it is you do!

Holy Smokes

'Bloom' is New Islands debut E.P and it is about self growth and the struggle it can be to get there. I want people to know that after an ugly storm, there is sunlight and your flowers can bloom again. From influences such as The Beatles, Mac DeMarco, Brenton Wood, and many more, this E.P brings upbeat and wavy vibes for any kind of day! New Islands 3 singles "Holy Smokes", "Bloom", and "Let's Jam, Girl" are included in this musical journey and I hope to connect with people through these songs. Thank you all for the overwhelming support and I hope you enjoy!

lyrics
[verse 1]
I've been thinking about you
I cannot believe it's been so long
Dreamlike moments passing through
Every time I hear a little song

[chorus]
Ooooooh, Nostalgic Avenue

[verse 2]
Cruising past the avenue
Wishing time could slow down everyday
So I'll keep dreaming about you
And never let those memories fade away...

[chorus]
Ooooh, Nostalgic Avenue

[outro]
Take me back to good ol'
Nostalgic Avenue
