🎤 INTRODUCING OUR NEW SONG: TOGETHER, UNSHAKABLE

After watching the “No Kings” protest unfold across the country—millions of people rising up in the streets to say enough to Trump’s authoritarian rule—I knew I had to do something. I was overwhelmed. I saw hope. I saw resistance. I saw America refusing to bow.

From Los Angeles to Louisville, Chicago to small-town corners we never hear about on the news, people were marching—not just in protest, but in unity. It moved me. It shook me. And as a songwriter, the only way I could process what I was witnessing was by turning it into music.

That’s how “Together, Unshakable” was born.

This song is more than a track—it’s a tribute to everyone who showed up, stood strong, and made it clear: we are not afraid. We are not alone. And together, we are unshakable.

We at the Blue Wave Revival Band hope this song captures the spirit of that incredible moment and carries it forward. Turn it up, sing along, and let’s keep the movement alive.

TOGETHER UNSHAKABLE

“Mexican Hillbilly” is the latest politically charged protest anthem from Rick Gaspa and the Blue Wave Revival Band. This studio version blends the bold storytelling of a modern corrido and ranchera with a rich, mariachi-inspired sound—featuring trumpets, acoustic guitar, vihuela, guitarrón, and accordion. With a passionate male lead vocal and emotionally charged rhythms, Rick delivers unapologetic lyrics that confront the painful truth about Latino voters who supported Donald Trump. The song pulls no punches—calling out family separations, the border wall, ICE raids, and the neglect of Puerto Rico. It’s written in Rick’s signature structure: traditional at its core, but with a sharp political twist, a Mexican flair, and a contemporary edge.

As always, “Mexican Hillbilly” is free to stream, download, and share at https://bluewaverevivalband.com/home. For the full experience, we recommend using headphones—so you don’t miss a single lyric or the powerful message the band is proud to deliver.

Song Introduction – “Not on My Watch: The VA Song”
Written by Rick Gaspa | Performed by the Blue Wave Revival Band
This is more than a song—it’s a statement.

“Not on My Watch: The VA Song” is a soulful, defiant anthem dedicated to every veteran who came home expecting care and got neglect instead. Inspired by real stories and real pain, this track calls out the broken promises, crumbling systems, and political indifference that too many of our veterans face when they turn to the VA for help.

With heartfelt vocals, emotional lyrics, and a swelling arrangement that blends gospel undertones with rootsy Americana, this studio version speaks for the silenced and rallies the forgotten. Rick Gaspa, a 100% disabled Army veteran himself, wrote this not just as a musician—but as someone who’s lived it.

This is a message to Washington, to the system, to every elected official who’s looked the other way:

You will not dismantle veterans' care quietly. Not on our watch.
As always, the song is free to stream, download, and share at:

We recommend listening with headphones to catch every word, every truth, and every pulse of resistance because we fought for this country—and now we fight for each other.

🎵 The Color of My Jeans Are Blue — Blue Wave Revival Band

Our newest release, “The Color of My Jeans Are Blue,” is more than just a song — it’s a statement about identity, resilience, and pride in who we are. Built on an upbeat pop-rock groove with soulful touches, the track captures the spirit of everyday people who carry both their struggles and their hope like a badge of honor. The color blue isn’t just about denim — it’s about unity, truth, and the power of standing together, even when times get tough. With heartfelt lyrics, driving guitars, and an energy that lifts you up from the first chord, this song was made to be sung loud, shared wide, and felt deep.

Forget the High Road: Gavin Newsom Takes the Fight to Trump — And We’re With Him

Sometimes, you don’t beat a bully by staying quiet. Sometimes, you have to stand up, speak out, and punch back twice as hard. That’s exactly what California Governor Gavin Newsom is doing — and I’m here for it. The Blue Wave Revival Band and I are proud to fully endorse and support Gavin Newsom for President.

Trump and his MAGA extremists want to drag this country backward — back to a time when rights were stripped, voices were silenced, and power was concentrated in the hands of the few. But Gavin Newsom isn’t playing their game. He’s rewriting the rules. He’s exposing their lies, dismantling their narratives, and showing Democrats what real leadership looks like.

This isn’t about “playing nice” anymore. This is about protecting our democracy from people who are actively trying to destroy it. Newsom has the vision, the fire, and the fight we need to stand toe-to-toe with Trump and his allies — and he’s proving it every single day.

We’ve watched him defend reproductive rights, protect LGBTQ+ Americans, push for climate action, and stand up for working families. But most importantly, he’s showing Democrats across the country that the time for hesitation is over. It’s time to get loud, get bold, and get organized.

The Blue Wave Revival Band has always used our music to speak truth to power — and today, that truth is crystal clear: Gavin Newsom is the fighter we need in 2028.

If you believe in democracy, if you believe in justice, and if you believe that Trump and his MAGA machine must be stopped, join us. Read more, get involved, and stand with us in this movement.

At the end of the day, this election isn’t just about politics — it’s about who we are as a country and the future we’re building together. The Blue Wave Revival Band proudly and unapologetically supports and endorses Governor Gavin Newsom for President because he represents bold leadership, compassion, and a vision for an America where everyone has a fair shot. 

And being a group of passionate musicians, it just wouldn’t feel right for us to make an endorsement without putting it to music. 🎶 So, we did exactly that. Take a listen to what we came up with below — a song straight from our hearts, carrying the message we believe America needs to hear right now. This is our moment to rise, to fight for progress, and to make our voices heard. Join us, stand with us, and let’s make sure the Blue Wave carries us forward — because this is who we are. 🌊🎶

🌊 Stand Free, Stay Brave 🎶
A Song of Courage, Sacrifice, and Unbreakable Spirit
After weeks of writing about the unimaginable suffering in Gaza, I realized something — I’ve unintentionally pushed Ukraine’s story to the side. That was a mistake, and today, I want to make it right.

Ukraine’s fight is not just their fight — it’s our fight too. It’s a battle for freedom, justice, and survival. Against one of the most powerful militaries in the world, the Ukrainian people have refused to bow, refused to break, and refused to surrender. Their courage deserves the world’s attention.

That’s why the Blue Wave Revival Band has been pouring our hearts into a new song — one written to honor Ukraine’s resilience, salute its soldiers, and remind the world what’s at stake.
🎵 “Stand Free, Stay Brave” is more than a song. It’s a tribute.

To the soldiers holding the line in trenches and fields.
To the families hiding in basements, clinging to hope.
To every Ukrainian who refuses to kneel before tyranny.
We’ve spent weeks perfecting every note, every harmony, every emotion. The final tweaks are done. The vocals are laid. The studio session is complete. Now, we’re getting ready to release it worldwide.

We recommend grabbing your headphones when the song drops — we want you to hear every lyric, every chord, every heartbeat we put into this. This is more than music. It’s a reminder to the world:

Ukraine will stand. Ukraine will win. 🌊💙💛

Stand Free Stay  Brave

🌊 New Song Release — “On Their Knees” 🎶
📺 I watched in shock.  Another mass shooting. Another tragedy.

Children, on their knees, praying in church… and still, they were gunned down. Others critically injured. And as I watched the heartbreaking images unfold, I couldn’t hold it back — the lyrics poured out of me, shaped by the pain and heartbreak I was witnessing.

🎵 That pain became “On Their Knees” — a song written for the children we’ve lost, the parents left broken, and the communities forever scarred. It’s a plea. It’s a cry. It’s a demand for action.
“Enough! Not one more school killing.” We cannot stay silent. We cannot normalize this.
While Republicans remain in the pocket of big gun manufacturers and Democrats still aren’t pushing hard enough against the gun lobby, we, the people, must rise up.

💻 Listen now and take action:   bluewaverevivalband.com
Please share this song far and wide — with your friends, your family, and yes, with your Republican and Democratic lawmakers. Every voice matters. Every share matters. Every life matters. The Blue Wave Revival Band has your back. Together, we can demand change.
— Rick Gaspa, Blue Wave Revival Band 🌊

On Their Knees

This one’s personal, folks.

The Blue Wave Revival Band is back with a new anthem, and it’s more than just a song — it’s a call to action. “RING IT IN” is about making way for the next generation — the young, the bold, and the unafraid. It’s about passing the torch to those who aren’t weighed down by decades of political games and outdated thinking.

For too long, the same tired voices have controlled the conversation, clinging to power while innovation, progress, and fresh ideas were left waiting outside the door. That ends now.

“RING IT IN” is about breaking open those doors. It’s about letting new leaders — creative thinkers, problem-solvers, and visionaries — step up and take the wheel. It’s about trusting the energy, courage, and passion of younger minds to tackle challenges with a new version of America’s future.

This isn’t about replacing experience. It’s about balancing it. It’s about pairing wisdom with innovation, history with progress, and courage with compassion. Because the truth is, tomorrow belongs to those who are ready to shape it.

So turn it up. Feel the beat. Let it remind you that it’s time to RING IN a new generation of leadership — a future fueled by fresh ideas, bold action, and the power of voices that refuse to stay silent.

This isn’t just a song.
It’s a movement. 🌊🎶

RING IT IN
