Generations of millennials, gen-z'ers and gen-alpha are out there, unable to have simple, face-to-face conversations with others. They're unable to emotionally connect with others and are so wrapped up within their own ego's that they now need "safe spaces" with coloring books and crayons on college campuses. They need "cry rooms" where they can go, just to avoid allowing anyone to see one ounce of emotion from them. Then, with COVID, it seems like this dysfunction spread, and affected other generations, all the way back to baby-boomers. We started working remotely, and got so used to the separation, we don't want to go to our friends houses or to parties anymore. And when people DO finally get together, they're all staring at their phones. We've all become SO DISCONNECTED! This song is about getting back to our face-to-face interactions, parties, dinners with friends and family, at re-learning (or for gen z'ers and gen-alphas, learning for the first time) the ART of conversation and discovering what it means to be empathetic and to love someone other than yourself! 

Lyrics to "Disconnected" 

[Verse 1] 
We used to laugh, under the stars shining bright,. 
Now we’re stuck with screens, missing out on the light. 
Friends at the door, sharing stories and dreams. 
But now it’s just clicks, and lonely routines. 

Let’s break these walls, come back together. 

[Chorus] 
Let’s get back to the roots, face to face. 
Remove all these screens, let’s find our place. 

Building deeper bonds, eye contact and care, 
Let’s bring back the laughter, the love that we share! 

[Verse 2] 
Once we’d gather, with food and good wine. 
Now we’re isolated, lost in the grind. 
A text instead of a hug, a "Like" for a smile. 
We forgot how to connect, it’s been a long while. 

Still we can change, let’s turn it around. 

[Chorus] 
Let’s get back to the roots, face to face.
Remove all these screens, let’s find our place. 

Building deeper bonds, eye contact and care. 
Let’s bring back the laughter, the love that we share! 

[Outro] 
So put down your phone, let’s reconnect. 
In this world of chaos, we’ll find our respect.


Disconnected

I'm just creating music with the tools I have at my disposal, hoping the stories I weave will resonate with others. My first country album is called, "Unloading Zone".  But don't pigeon-hole me.  I work in all different genres.
