about

Kindness and Courage is a sweet track with pulling string arrangements, meaningful lyrics, and emotive chord progressions.

lyrics

Let the first sound you hear
Be a beating heart
Beating bright, beating bold
Mmm

When your eyes come to me
I’m humbled constantly
A supernova in sight
Mmm

In the rising and fall
Of the mountains and your breath
There are dreams, there are dreams
Mmm

Remember yours is the heart
That paints the world the very best
In the colors of your life
Mmm

So be kind, have courage
Treat yourself with dignity
Walk tall, speak sweetly
Be brave enough to leave
And when you’re caught in the darkness
That comes over me
Remember yours is a light, that the darkness cannot be
That yours is a light, that the darkness cannot be

May you find that your heart
Burns as big as your mothers
And your smile just as bright
Mmm

Remember grace when you fall
And turn to shadows like your father
And the words to make it right
Make it right

It’s to be kind, have courage
Treat yourself with dignity
Walk tall, speak sweetly
Be brave enough to leave
And when you’re caught in the darkness
That comes over me
Remember yours is a light, that the darkness cannot be
That yours is a light, that the darkness cannot be

As you fall into stars
Find your place amongst the orchards
Know you’re perfect as you are
Mmm

Kolby Knickerbocker Bend, Oregon

My music is simple, but powerful. Indiecoustic would be a start but doesn’t quite capture the essence; there has to be heart, and lots of it.

My music has been featured in television shows like MTV’s Degrassi High, 90210, Heart Signal, Barely Breathing, many independent films, and has been featured in Spotify’s “Top” editorial playlists. ... more
