about

13HANDS aka DALIEN is back with a powerful and inspirational song entitled,

“State Of Affairs - The State of the Re-Union Address, Part 1:
Make America Aligned Again”.

This is part 1 of a 4 part song that was adapted from a 10 page essay Dalien wrote this past summer in a remote cabin in the mountains of Pennsylvania. It is a direct, witty, sincere and layered exploration of the current socio-economic, political climate in America while suggesting some ideas and solutions for all of us to reflect upon. It’s lyrically inspired by the 60’s/70‘s folk music era channeling an Arlo Guthrie’s “Alice’s Restaurant” meets Don McClean’s “American Pie” with a Counting Crows meets traditional, Irish sing-along pub song. It is a heartfelt, insightful song that asks our President some very direct questions, addresses some ideas with the coal industry and this installment ends with a plea for community through an emotionally inspiring finale/gang vocal chorus to incite us to come together in hopes of building a better tomorrow, united as Americans.
