Change is in the Air!: DoS Gets a Makeover
Change has always had a soundtrack. Flower children witnessed The Byrds wave daisies in the air; declaring “To everything (turn, turn, turn). There is a season (turn, turn, turn).” Frustrated, British rebels pumped their fists to “God save the queen we mean it, man.” And, of course, the Millennial Generation watched Mufasa proudly present baby Simba to the entire African animal kingdom as they sang, “On the path unwinding. In the Circle. The Circle of Life.” Okay…so that last one is small potatoes. But what I’m trying to say is that we at DoS aren’t afraid of change, especially when the soundtrack is produced by DC artists and fans of DC musicians, like you.
