Singled Out: Ryan Star's Breathe

I was making "11:59" out in California and the person closest to me in my life was going through some tough times. I felt helpless so I penned "Breathe". A valentine to her and to everyone who can relate saying that "we will get through this together. Breathe through this moment and peace will find you."

There was a line giving me some trouble so I actually called her up and asked why she liked New York so much at night. She replied "I feel like I can just run away", which is now a line in the song.

The best part about the song for me is that it continues to humble me as a musician as I perform it for audiences around the world. I get so much mail from people who's words make me feel so blessed to have a song like "Breathe". It seems to be the words that a lot of people need to hear right now.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself with the song stream and you can also check out a video of Ryan performing the song acoustically - right here!
