Stripped down acoustical demo. "27"
It is said we peak at 27 years of age. When we have lived 10,000 days we are in our 27th year.
I made this song from the perspective of a 27 year old looking back, observing present and considering the future.

A couple years ago, my best friend lost his 30 year old son. It was totally unexpected. Kyle was the nicest guy I ever met, and I wear his memory bracelet always.
I've been kicking around the idea to write a song for Kyle, but it was just too soon, until now

Hi there! Whatever Will Be is song (and a co-write) that came to life during a songwriting retreat in Pidgeon Forge, TN. The assignment was to write something that could be featured in a movie. No other context was given. Storyline: woman reflects on her life, getting a notion (through observations) that her life is about to change. She doesn't know what's ahead of her, if it'll be good or bad, but that's alright: "Whatever will be will be". At the moment, we're revising the lyrics to see if we can make them more coherent. Best, Martin

Written and produced and performed by me. American student Otto Warmbier died today after suffering at the hands of his North Korean captors for 17 months. I was outraged and as a songwriter I felt I would write and produce this song for his family and Americans in general.
