My latest song, “Comin’ To Take You Home” was inspired by a sad news story. It explores three different types of loss: faith, people, and sensibility. Musical influences included Woodie Guthrie’s “Deportee; “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot;” and “Plastic Jesus.” The video is powerful. youtu.be/Gb68KIUXX_4
