Backbone was written in Feb 2020, ahead of a year that would be like no other in my lifetime. I wrote it initially out my grief and gratitude, dealing with the loss of my aunt and uncle earlier in that year. Since then, this song's power and message has widened far beyond my walls and I hope it brings comfort to any who need it.
