The Second Act
Some of the best songwriters of a generation became doctors, teachers, engineers instead. The dream didn’t die — it got deferred, forty years, while the notebooks filled quietly.

He needed a partner who could take his voice memos and make them real: a heavy-metal anthem here, a modern country song there, an island song in the Spanish of his childhood — songs for his late parents, songs left waiting for his grandchildren. Twenty songs and counting. Every note performed by human hands. → his story
