Nashville, Tenn. (November 11, 2014) - Newton & Thomas are proud to announce the new single release, “Great American Heroes.
It was written by Mark Brinkman who shared his thoughts on writing “Great American Heroes” saying, “As my son, Zac, was joining the USAF I began thinking about ‘heroes’ and the moral fabric of our nation today.
I wanted to write a song to make a statement and honor the ‘real’
heroes in our lives. The dad that works double shifts so that his kids
might go to college and have a better life than he did….the mom that
keeps the family together, sacrifices personal gain for the benefits of
her children…the teacher that can shape the life of a child and inspire
them on to a lifetime of learning and contribution to society…and the
men and women who put their lives on the line every day for our freedom.
These are the ‘real’ heroes that we need to be lifting up! I hope the
song helps to redefine the word ‘hero’ and focus on the people with hero
qualities - sacrifice, selfless, caring, courage, giving, love,
fearless, etc.”
Amen to that message. We all need to keep everything in perspective as our national political scene continues to appear chaotic. Let's focus on the positives and the real heroes all around us in this great nation. Roger
