The  Story Behind The Wall

• Marcy Requist & Ron Wikso wrote Wall of Glass during the Covid-19 Quarantine of 2020.
• It originates from a first-hand understanding of what it’s like to be unable to visit a parent in a nursing home during the quarantine.
• The story begins in a hospital nursery with a new father looking at his baby daughter through its protective “wall of glass” .
• That little girl grows up, and now she is looking at her father through a “wall of glass” from outside his nursing home.
• She is unable to visit him because of the quarantine.
• The father has dementia, so there’s also a figurative wall that stands between him and his memories of his daughter.
• You may recognize yourself, or someone you know within the story. And, you’ll feel a hug of comfort from the message,”Have faith, this too shall pass.”

Not being able to be in the same studio during a quarantine didn’t stop this team from recording.As seen in the music video, technology makes it possible to be hundred of miles apart, but still be able to play “together”.FEATURINGRon Wikso – Production/Mixing/Drums(Foreigner, Cher, CCR, Richie Sambora, Gregg Rolie Band, Player, Eddie Money)Wally Minko – PianoGrammy-Nominated (Toni Braxton, Tom Jones, Barry Manilow, Pink!, En Vogue, Arturo Sandoval, Gregg Rolie Band, Jean-Luc Ponty)Kurt Griffey – Guitars(CCR, Gregg Rolie Band, Spencer Davis, Randy Meisner of The Eagles, Eddie Money)Matt Bissonette – Bass Guitar(Elton John, Ringo Starr, ELO, Rick Springfield, Maynard Ferguson, “Friends” TV Show)Jerry Tubb – Mastering(Mastering Engineer for everyone from Willie Nelson to Paul McCartney)
