Surrender…

Music & Blog by Arianna Nakashima

This song was written in 2015, making it one of my earlier works. Here’s the simplest description of what this song is about:
What if you ended up in what seemed to be a terrible conflict with another, only to live a long time in resentment, while the other person put it to rest long ago?
How would it feel to wake up from that grudge, only to see this was no longer a battle with the other person, it was a battle with yourself?

This song and several others that have released over the last year are from my upcoming album; “In An Ocean Forever” You can download the available songs including “Surrender” now.

Potential – Official Lyric Video

Arianna: This song is another piece I’d composed some years back . It’s one that I came to write when I was thinking about how much society can pressure and shame people into feeling like they’re never good enough. And how it can travel down generationally, and we never question why things have to be a certain way. I hope you like this completed version of the song, much thanks to Avery for editing and putting it all together. Enjoy❤️

One year of Open Mics

Open Mic Performances from Nov 2022 – Dec 2023

Arianna: Here is a compilation of all my performances (so far) at our local open mics. Most of these are original songs I wrote and composed, but there’s a couple covers in there as well. I’ve definitely enjoyed having the opportunity to play my music at The Gordon (PenArts) and the Pacific Kava Bar, both have great atmospheres and lovely people. I’m grateful to have been so well received at both places.

I hope you enjoy this collection of my live performances, thanks for listening.
