Walk A Mile - Sci Fi Romance



Vance Kotrla of Sci-FI Romance was one of the artists tapped for this project, he explains...
At the beginning of July, Stacey Haber of the Music Firm UK reached out to me to find out if I'd be willing to write and record a song for a social awareness campaign launching in conjunction with the 2012 Olympic Games in London. The campaign is called "Walk a Mile," and draws its name from the familiar notion of walking a mile in someone else's shoes. It's an off-shoot of the State Department's "Hours Against Hate" initiative, which encourages inter-faith and inter-cultural tolerance, and is sponsored by the International Olympic Truce Centre. Dave Stewart (of the Eurythmics) contributed the theme song for the whole thing. All of that sounded pretty good, and I was flattered to be invited, so I wrote a new song. You can listen/download right here, and read more...
