MUSIC

words + music by Erin Bentlage

​

I wrote 'I Would' in a moment where I thought I did not want to be where I was. With the ocean as my only consolation, I sang to my future and the reminder that darkness always breaks, realizing I could orient myself toward that promise. Singing this song with Apartment Sessions in Iceland, I revisited my endless gratitude for the Earth and all she provides, but this time I was singing to my present self and my fellow humans, in awe of a life that had delivered me to that moment.
