Through songwriting sessions with an outstanding lineup of Canadian blues artists, Steve Strongman developed an album of songs that touch on multiple experiences and points of view, with the overarching message that the best remedy for the world we live in right now is to fill it with music that celebrates life and focuses on the joys of being on the other side.
