My husband and co-writer, Jeremy Ivey, discovered the thought I had scribbled from my deserted pocket book, and we resurrected it with a melody. The entire thing got here collectively in ten minutes in a kind of lightning bolt moments the place you’re tapped into one thing greater than your self. I needed to remind individuals of all of the locations and ways in which we’re nonetheless allowed to dream even when the surface world looks as if a nightmare.
Jesse Welles is one in every of my favourite new songwriters and a uncommon prolific artist who actually has one thing to say. I met him at Farm Assist and I turned an enormous fan of his lyrics in addition to his voice. I’m so grateful he might be part of me to sing on this tune.
