    The planning for this was insane. The Sacramento community literally lifted me up to help me see this vision through when I had not a single penny to my name (been a super rough year lol but that’s life) We took 3 days to set up the space. First day was loading in and setting up sound and placement of the desks in the space. Second day was getting the lighting, photos, and dress rehearsal. 3rd day was the official shoot. There was a magic energy filling the space that I can’t explain, but I had a plan, and this turned out way better than the plan I had. This is a result of amazing teamwork and minds coming together.

    next time ask your label.... i mean community ;) for a few G's to film and produce a small film about your song and manage your social media. I usually just ask my human resources department who we can hire for the band's entry each year then do the screening process and filming process, make sure to put all 6 of your producers in the credits.

    Hey Philharmonik, Man....I found out about you from your winning the Tiny Desk Concert Contest this year and I am kicking myself that I didn't know about you sooner because you are one bad dude! Love your music man. I have your songs stuck in my head now particularly this one and my favorite Pay Me. hahaha It's not funny but, the sentiment most working folks can totally understand. There is a righteousness to your lyrics and the music is very compelling. There is a ton of heart and soul in your songs man. I have always been drawn to "real" music and I think you are speaking to the people with your songs man in the best possible way. I love what your doing man and I hope this finds you well and I wish you and your family nothing but, the best in all that you do. Cheers! Peter St. John Clovis, CA

    Dag! Randomly found The Philharmonik. Blown away is an understatement. The vocal arrangements are stellar (George Benson/Luther league ). The girls really shine. The band is smokin. Lead singer amazing (shades of Billy Preston) and he raps..great! I never ever comment either but I was moved to.

    What’s It All Mean (Lyrics) I was told I could be anything that I wanted to be Work hard so you can make money and fulfill your dreams But if you look at the people that are better than me Trying find a way around this power scheme What It's all mean? What it's all mean? What's it all mean? What it's all mean? What's it all mean? What's it all mean? Get up, go to work Go to sleep, then repeat You can't seem to meet needs Working hard like machines Broken heart torn apart Making sure your closed off And avoid getting hurt To preserve your self-worth What's it all mean? What's it all mean? What's it all mean? What’s it all mean? What’s it all mean? Should I drink and do drugs Since I only live once Or ask God for some help So I don't go to hell Or invest in my health And acquire much wealth Either way it's all vain ‘Cause we end up the same What's it all mean What's it all mean What's it all mean What’s it all mean What’s it all mean What’s it all mean If I keep it slow and steady Then I’ll win the race Got my eyes on the prize Let’s take it day by day Even though on the journey We might fall on the way Now, if you fall seven times Make sure you get back up eight. What’s it all mean? What’s it all mean? That’s what it all means What’s it all mean? What’s it all mean? That’s what it all means What goes up must come down What goes around comes around Around the sun we revolve Life itself still evolves Lots of things we don’t know Always more room to grow Everything still goes on After we’re dead and gone Life goes on Life goes on Life goes on Life goes on Life goes on Life goes on
