Produced solo by Stephens, the track opens with a military drumbeat, swells with an eight-piece horn section and gospel choir, and closes with a haunting clip of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech. With Grammy-nominated credits alongside Boney James and Alanis Morissette, Stephens brings his signature orchestral soul to this anthem of unity, ahead of the nation’s 250th anniversary. His next album, “A Great Day on Earth,” drops soon — and its first single, “Golden Hour,” arrives in September. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
