“The Ukraine has been at war for over 7 years. When you cross the Danube River, you either make it across to the shore or you reach the impeding end.”

Powerfully evocative, Phil Mitchell Band transitions with professionalism and displays a seriously bold style of songwriting on this new single that’s guaranteed to resonate within the hearts and minds of those out there listening from all around the world to this fascinating & epic tale told through music.
