The vibes range from breezy mid-tempo, to straight up rock, to chill ballad-esque songs. There are some wonderful solos on the songs and great talent. I hope you’ll give it a listen. “For Reflection” will hit streaming services on Nov. 12.

That policy was eliminated during Reagan’s tenure and I think has a lot to do with how we got to where we are today. AKA, the news having just one side.

I write about it in my song, Everything We Have To Lose, which is coming out this Friday.

Let me know what you think, @stewart_copeland! You can listen to Tariffs on all streaming platforms and Bandcamp.

It’s kind of like School House Rock meets the Police’s Walking On The Moon.
