A songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist, Alyssa Bonagura has spent the past decade fine-tuning a sound that reaches far beyond her Nashville roots. It's a sound that blurs the boundaries between genres, mixing the southern storytelling of country music, the free-thinking spirit of rock & roll, and the cinematic sweep of Brit-pop into its own hybrid. For Alyssa - a lifelong road warrior who spent her infancy aboard a tour bus, recorded a duet with Kenny Rogers at 10 years old, received her college diploma from Sir Paul McCartney, and currently balances her critically-acclaimed solo career with an ongoing gig writing songs for Jessie James Decker, Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler, and others - it's also a sound that's every bit as diverse as her own story. Her latest solo project marks her first release post her collab in The Sisterhood Band, which took her across the world touring two successful Sony Music EPs, performing at the Grand Ole Opry, & opening for Rod Stewart.
The Lord never leaves you alone, Ms. Alyssa! I'm prayin' for His protection and inspiration to always be available to you, dear songstress. May God bless and keep you.
Idkw but this song makes me cry. I heard in on a commercial for Young Sheldon, and asked Siri what song it was, then came here. Whew! I’m so emotional, what a beautiful song, and your voice, wow!🎶♥️🔥✝️🌈
I spotted you quite by chance signing ad hoc backing vocals with the Mavericks! What a pure refreshing voice you have. You song reminds me of when I was in Nashville and stopped by a music store. The owner was a real old timer a truly great guy he handed me down a guitar he told me was over 100 years old! Well we sat down and had a jamming session and a few other folks came in off the street and sat in on bass, fiddle and drums. I'll never forget it. I didnt buy the old guitar as I was told 'I'll never part with it' - but I came away with an old vintage Nashville guitar...to this day I wonder WHO had played it before me? 🤔
This song is about so much of the human struggle to keep going everyday. Love this version’s beauty and sensitivity to the original message. It’s healing.
I keep coming back here from time to time to hear this because it's just so moving it's like almost a spiritual experience. Thank you so much so much. Life is hard and you bring joy to those of us you dont even know with your gift. The world has gone insane since now, years after you made this. People denying reality, so coming here for me is even more coveted, thank you, thank you,thank you.
