A statement from Savage the Poet:

"The song "Head Up" was written during the pandemic as a way of reminding myself that there are brighter days that come from the dark ones. It is dedicated to those who dream without restriction and who believe that blessings are just a day away. Life is a journey and the beauty in it is to live it wholeheartedly with and without fear."

"Picture it: 2010, a lonely apartment on Crescent Heights Boulevard in Hollywood, CA. The sun was shining, the skies were blue... and so was I! I was looking for love and magic, and it was Christmas! So one night, playing around at home, I wrote and recorded this song. I hope you honor the magic and wonder within your heart."

A statement from Kate:

"[This piece was created] During a phase when I was physically fatigued and emotionally drained and struggling to connect to the creative energy I source for writing. I have ADHD and my energy fluctuates during times when I’m tired. ‘Burnout’ describes how I take myself through this process and regain the stability I draw upon to write."

A statement from Louise:

"Coming from a household where your voice was muted, I have always had the need to be heard and understood, and felt weighted underneath the label of 'odd sheep in the family'. Through writing and acting, I have found my voice.

This collection of poems, 'Connected. Disconnected. Hearts and Souls and Other Parts', expresses the essence of those who touched my life with their eternal generosity of spirit, and others who took a piece of me along the way."

A statement from Henny:

"I had a conversation with my parents during lockdown about how children's imaginations and view on reality is so vastly different from the older generations, and how, why, when that innocence and magic disappears - It made me think about my own experience and at what point I figured out that my crazy ideas didn't align with the adult-universe. And so I figured I would write it all down, in hope that someday I would get to talk to others about it and see whether they felt the same way."

Ethan Van Dorn is a practicing Barrister/Attorney (Immigration and Family law), scriptwriter and also a voice over artist. Based in London, England.

A Statement from Ethan:

"[This] piece was created in November 2021. It was following a review of Immigration cases in the UK which involved 'sham marriages' or where a relationship between two parties was deemed not genuine. This case had twists and turns where a staged relationship ended up in an unbreakable and strong relationship of dependency and care. It is light and dark in parts but with a positive ending."

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."
