After two of my friends died unexpectedly in a car accident I felt compelled to write a song because I am a firm believer that music heals. Struggling to express the grief that I felt, it took me a year after their passing to complete the song. “Star(s) in the sky” was my original song seed. It was the idea that stars are always there and can be a reminder of their memory. I knew I wanted this song to be primarily a piano ballad. I collaborated with Martina Gallo an extremely talented multi-instrumentalist and good friend to ensure my vision of the song would remain the same throughout the recording process. I limited the recording studio session(s) to myself, Martina and the producer John Mailloux at Bongo Beach Productions. It remains the same authentic heartbreaking ballad I intended it to be.
