Hero
At Home Released To Radio And Video Outlets
Nashville, TN Plateau Music, announces the national release of the debut
single from Tennessee native April Taylor. The song Hero At
Home is a moving testament to all those who are left behind to
care for the families and homes of the soldiers who are so often
called away to put their lives on the line for our country.
Written by Sandi Kight, Charles Kight and Paul Harbin, the
song and its message have a special connection for Taylor. My
mother's father was deployed to Korea and left my grandmother at
home with 4 small children. She has told me so many stories of the
struggles she went through while he was away. I also have a really
good friend whose husband is in Iraq now. He has been gone for over
a year. When she talks about her life and about her three small
children at home, I hear the same struggles that my grandmother went
through. When I first heard the song, I immediately thought of their
lives and I wanted others to know how they felt, and to understand
their hardships, their sacrifices.
April Taylor and
Plateau Music have announced that 20% of the gross sale of direct
Internet purchases of "Hero at Home" CD's will be donated to
charities benefiting military families.
