The Best of Everything

Don’t Back Down Releases Their First Original Single, Winding Roads

In tribute to the rich musical heritage of Laurel Canyon and in support of the Annapolis Musicians Fund for Musicians (AM/FM), Don’t Back Down proudly presents their debut original single, “Winding Roads.”

Written by Mark O’Dell and Don’t Back Down, “Winding Roads” draws inspiration from the melodic essence and ethos of the 1960s Laurel Canyon music scene, notably channeling the timeless spirit of Roger McGuinn and The Byrds. The song resonates with a profound message, exploring the journey of finding inner peace amid the tapestry of one’s past experiences and contemplating their profound impact on the unfolding chapters of the future. Join Don’t Back Down on a musical journey, where nostalgia and hope harmoniously intertwine.
