Tsunami Lament

On July 29, 2025, a devastating 8.8-magnitude earthquake triggered tsunami warnings across the Pacific—from Russia and Japan to Alaska and Hawaii. This song, Tsunami Lament, is my way of processing the shock, fear, and resilience I witnessed in the news and remembered from disasters past. It's an American folk ballad for those who fled in the night, for communities holding their breath, for lives lost and saved, and for the strength it takes to rebuild.
