With recent events in the U.S., Makar brings a very important and political song to the table. Recently releasing their latest single, "America Where Are You?" we hear the band voicing their thoughts and concerns in the latest piece. Fitting for the 2017 political landscape and Inaurguration Day, the group brings to the table a rational and heartfelt concern in the world, and what a worrisome world it is. Sharing the story of the haves and have nots, the rich and poor, and beyond, their hearts capture the essence and concerns of the American people.
Makar shares of the song:
"When we think of the lyrics of this song, we think about the poison of apathy. We think about how frustrated, disappointed and depressed we were about our leaders until President Obama and Vice President Biden. How paralyzing our own apathy was. Because if you stopped caring, the pain of what was happening to our world would dull and recede. But if you click off all the news in order to breathe and live in denial, that bubble of apathy just allows wars and injustices to continue. This song is a call to action now more than ever."
