A statement from Jonathan:

"I made the song featured in my piece just within a few days because it spoke to me so much and I felt that this was a song I was really connecting with. It was like a visual painting came to life from my head. So I decided that it needs to be out there in the world and released it. This piece was created as an explanation to what the song is about and who I am as an artist. I feel like what I truly want with my music is for my stories to be heard and related to, so hopefully I can inspire and help others just by speaking to them through songs."

A statement from Queen P:

"I was asked to write and read the poem Mother and Daughter in the summer of 2019 for a special event for young black girls that were being mentored and trained to become active workers with building up their communities. I felt that I had a responsibility (being a mother of two daughters) to share my memories of my daughters, and spread words of wisdom and encouragement through my poetry. My hope was that the words would resonate with the young ladies as well as their mothers. There’s no greater bond than that of a mother and her daughter."

Nancy Hays is a singer/songwriter originally from central Illinois, who has recorded five albums and made five tours of the UK with her original country music. Nancy also opened for country icons including Conway Twitty, Ronnie Milsap, Glen Campbell and many others. Nancy's maternal roots were rural farmers from the Midwest. Nancy's best friend growing up was one of nine children from a large farm family. Between performances on the road with her band, Nancy would visit her best friend, Connie Wise. Back in Illinois was written about her fond memories of times spent on the Wise farm and also her thoughts of home, especially when far away. Many years later, three of Nancy's four children began performing with her under the name Nancy Hays & The Heffernans (Nancy's husband is Sean Heffernan). Nancy's other son, Eddie, creates the family music videos. Nancy decided to record Back in Illinois, with her extended family. Matthew plays fiddle and sings harmony and daughters Mary and Caroline provide harmony vocals. The song made its radio debut on iHeart Radio in 2019. It is produced by Nashville based producer, Randy Gardner.

A statement from Nancy:

"Back in Illinois is a song that I hope reminds others of their own hometown and country roots, recalling fond memories of loved ones, family and friends."

A statement from Angela:

"I had written this story back in August of 2021 as I was going through some old photographs that I had found in an old tote, in the back of my bedroom closet. It really made me reflect back on both the good and bad times that I had growing up and made me realize just how far I had come from being a scared, confused little girl to a very strong and resilient woman, who will always advocate for others to let it be known that the chains of trauma can be broken. I have felt a prompting from my higher power to let my story unfold as a way to cast a light on others so they may find their own value in their identity as I have by letting them know they are not alone."
