My song is a dialogue across time. George Washington, the emblem of America’s beginnings, talks of a utopic future where “no one will be afraid.” Dr. King points out that this future has not been realized and dreams that “…one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.” Amanda Gorman states that our job, as Americans, is to “step into” our past and repair it. The American Dream of a society dedicated to equality, freedom, and justice for all is not invalidated because we haven’t lived up to it. My song is a continuation of this call-to-arms, this challenge to Americans everywhere: live up to the Dream.

Nancy Drew: Message in a Haunted Mansion was one of my favorite games growing up. The music and sound effects are engraved on my memory, and this song is a tribute.

Soundation Creation

This, my first ever composition, was created in memory of my best friend, Bobby. He was there for me for seven years, through thick and thin. I hope I was half as good a friend to him as he was to me.

This version is vocals only - one day there will be a guitar accompaniment.
Recorded and mastered by Arik Sokolowski.
