Venice songwriter, Don Weismantel, teamed up with Cliff Randi, front man for Maiden Cane (SWFL's favorite arena rock cover band), to deliver a much needed anthem for Florida's Hurricane Ian recovery. "When Cliff joined the project, the natural choice was to create an arena rock ballad style song. Cliff suggested slowing my demo song down to give him more time with the lyrics. His instincts were dead on! When I heard his vocals for the first time, I was absolutely floored when he delivered an incredible lead together with 4–5-part harmonies that gave the choruses the punch needed to have that Journey/Styx/Kansas style massive vocal. It took the song to where it needed to be. His vocal range is insane! Working with Cliff has been one of the highlights of my musical endeavors," explains Weismantel.

Randi then enlisted drummer extraordinaire, Jeff Thal, to come on board giving an authentic beat to the anthem. Randi's talented daughter delivered additional vocals and he and his son mixed the audio. "To say that talent runs deep in the Randi family is an understatement," says Weismantel.

"The heartwarming thing about the project is that there is no Left or Right on this issue, all Floridians can get behind this effort. It brings us together," Weismantel continues.
