The Story Behind “Ceasefire Falters (Trump Goes Beserk)”
If you're feeling overwhelmed by the headlines, crank this one up. Scream along. Dance through the madness. It won’t fix the world — but sometimes, music’s the only thing that keeps us sane.

The headlines hit like a gut punch: the fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran shattered overnight. Rockets in the sky. Crowds in the streets. And in the background — as if things weren’t volatile enough — Donald Trump storming back into the spotlight, fanning the flames with his usual antics.
That morning, I did what I’ve always done when the world feels like it’s spinning off its axis — I wrote a song.
“Ceasefire Falters (Trump Goes Beserk)” is loud, raw, and unapologetically rooted in early rock & roll energy. But under the driving beat and soaring horn section lies a deeper message: frustration, fear, and the desperate hope that somehow, amid all the chaos, we’ll find a way forward.
I wanted this song to hit hard but still move you — the kind of track that feels like a protest anthem you can dance to. The female backing vocals bring grit and resilience, while the horn section wails like a warning siren. Every lyric, every note, carries that urgency I felt writing it — because we’re not just watching history unfold, we’re living it.
If you're feeling overwhelmed by the headlines, crank this one up. Scream along. Dance through the madness. It won’t fix the world — but sometimes, music’s the only thing that keeps us sane.
