Rhode Island–based singer-songwriter Andy Stone steps boldly into new territory with the release of his latest single — a powerful protest song addressing the far-reaching impact of the Trump era, from Minneapolis to Tehran and every community caught in between. With pointed lyrics and a driving musical backdrop, the track speaks to division, unrest, and the shared human cost felt both here at home and around the globe.
This marks a departure from Stone’s usual songwriting style, but one he felt compelled to make. As he shared in a previous press announcement, “This song is a departure from what I usually do, but it means a lot to me — especially with what’s going on in our country right now. As for RILiveMusic, we welcome a timely protest song — especially one that sparks conversation and reflects the emotions many are feeling in this moment.
Backing Stone on the recording is a standout group of collaborators. Richard Ribb lays down stellar bass lines, while Paul Furtado anchors the track with commanding drums. Stefanie Drexler brings depth and emotion through a dynamic, layered choir arrangement, with Eric Barao playing a key role in shaping and arranging the vocal textures that elevate the song’s intensity.
The result is both urgent and anthemic — a reminder that music continues to serve as a voice for reflection, resistance, and unity.
