An epic piece that placed in ASCAP’s 2021 Herb Alpert Young Composer’s Award. Like much art of the last couple years, this piece reflects the experience of living through the Covid-19 pandemic. However, rather than being a somber affair, “We’ll Get There” celebrates the found communities and bonds forged in times of struggle. Laid on top of a churning drum groove, the band travels between sounds unified and disparate, culminating in a Mingus influenced free section, recreating the cathartic feeling of joining together as a group in the face of adversity.
