E006. If Beale Street Could Talk — Sharon, Sharon Goes South

A driving gospel-blues for a mother who packs a small suitcase and crosses an ocean to find the one thing that might save her family. Track 2 of 4 from the EP 'Love Is a Witness', inspired by James Baldwin's If Beale Street Could Talk. Sharon — "Sharon Goes South" and she is not coming back empty. In Baldwin's story, Sharon is a loving and resilient mother whose unconditional love, emotional strength, and unwavering support guide her family through hardship. This song honours her as a symbol of hope, acceptance, and the enduring power of a mother’s love in the face of adversity. #music #soulmusic #gospelsoul #gospelblues #harlem #south #love #family #hope #resilience #identity #literature #loyalty #jamesbaldwin #mother #soloay
