Welcome back to Artbeat Radio!  

Please enjoy the latest piece composed by CECA Program service-users. “Bloom” was written by service users when confronted with a handful of garden blooms one morning, spawning inspiration. When beginning the songwriting process, service users were encouraged to experience and notice details of the Amaryllis flower (picked from the garden). With the Amaryllis in-mind, they were excited to write a love song highlighting the beauty of the flower and the beauty we find in others around us. Service users composed, orchestrated, engineered and wrote lyrics used for this piece by voting or deciding as a group. This piece was written and composed by Jesus Quiroz, Michael Hinckley, Dakari Johnson, and Johnny Galda. 

This new piece is accompanied by two CECA original pieces from our “Quarantunes” series. You’ll hear “Feelin the Sunshine” which was written in February 2021. This piece is accompanied by an original lyric video which you can find here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3C8WsoiIUAE 

The third and final piece will get you moving! It’s an upbeat instrumental piece which was written in January 2021 called “I love you from Brazil” 

Thanks for listening and tune in next time!

0:15 “Bloom”  

Lyrics:  

My love for you just blooms  

Marvelous petal 

Sweet scent  

Found you one day 

Ever since 

My love for you just blooms  

Happiness in my heart  

Warm like the sun  

Wrap me in your love 

My love for you just blooms  

1:57 Feelin the Sunshine 

Lyrics: 

I got my horchata  

You got your strawberry vegan ice cream  

We should grab some burgers 

And go eat at our hot hot summer feast 

It’s our summer song Hee hee hee It’s our summer song Hee hee hee 

Let’s meet at the ocean  

And look out to the shiny sparkling sea 

I wanna feel the sunshine 

While hanging out with all my favorite peeps 

It’s our summer song Hee hee hee It’s our summer song Hee hee he 

We’re gonna go camping  

In our pink tree house 

And watch the shooting stars  

We’ll go to raging waters 

And conquer thunder rapids  

And then we’ll play X-box 

Ha! 

4:10 I love you from Brazil 

Lyrics:
