In true Christmas spirit, The Marsh Family presents their latest single, “If That Day Comes Round,” a musical intervention to believe in the power of miracles to end crises. The song is a poignant reflection on the war-induced devastation in Gaza and Israel.
In a time where many turn a blind eye to the terrors of war, The Marsh Family stands out in their use of music as a medium to instill hope and bring awareness to the plight of those unfairly affected by the ongoing violence. Urging listeners to “Stand up for peace and light” they also request us to donate funds towards humanitarian aid and organizations like The International Red Cross.
The Marsh Family weaves an ornate musical fabric that can gracefully carry the weight of the theme in the song. Emotional vocals radiate feelings of pain and hope, harmonic strings set a mournful yet optimistic tone, and the piano notes enhance the song’s resonance. All six members lend their vocals and display rich artistry in their sincere and skillful rendition of melodies using multiple instruments. A homespun feeling permeates the entire song and evokes a sense of warmth and oneness.
Lines like “Since the guns don’t heal, Since the numbed can’t feel…” serve as a powerful and poetic reminder that war is oppressive and inflicts severe and irreversible pain on people. In this context, “If That Day Comes Round,” calls upon all of us to have faith in miracles, stand up in solidarity against violence, and embrace love. Listen to this deeply moving song now!
