Warrior Songs Inc. is a non-profit organization, which brings hope and healing to veterans through music and the creative arts. Through a variety of programs, Warrior Songs uses music to assist veterans and civilians to better understand the war experience.

Our mission is to transform buried experiences and feelings into music, which entertains as it educates, motivates, and inspires. We believe that helping those who have experienced war to express their struggles deepens their self-awareness and leads to a more purposeful existence.

Processing chaos into stories and setting these stories to music fosters communication and helps bridge the gap that often exists between veterans and their loved ones, and between civilians and veterans. Since war is destructive by its nature, over time it may diminish the natural human instinct to create and even interfere with the ability to experience hope and joy. Helping veterans to turn the destructive force of war into something meaningful and beautiful allows them to reclaim hope and joy as important forces in their lives.

Music’s therapeutic benefits are widely acknowledged by therapists and physicians around the world. In the United States, the Department of Veterans Affairs is aware of the progress and recovery that is able to be made through the creative arts and annually hosts the National Veterans Creative Arts Festival to celebrate healing through art.

Our Mission Statement

Warrior Songs Inc. is a non-profit organization committed to facilitating healing through songwriting and music amongst United States Military personnel, veterans and those working with veterans. Established musicians work with veterans to develop their written works and then turn these pieces into a platform for self-expression and healing. Additionally Warrior Songs Inc. seeks to educate the public and veterans communities about veterans issues (PTSD, MST, and other war traumas).
 
Warrior Songs also brings music to veterans in various stages of recovery. Our team of veteran and veteran-friendly musicians provides entertainment that is designed to educate, inspire, and motivate veterans.
