<p><strong>Ward</strong> is the rising singer-songwriter who is now based on the West Coast. The dedicated singer-songwriter has just released an indie-rock ballad titled &#8220;Stand Me&#8221; in late June. The song has a slightly romantic vibe but still feels somber and melancholy. His soft and emotional vocals mesh perfectly with the epic sounding guitar tracks which eventually leads to a melodic electric guitar solo. After the incredible solo, the song emerges into a more anthemic vibe and by the time the song ends you will already want to start playing it again. Ward worked as a tech executive in New York City and quit that career path and moved to Los Angeles to dive into his true passion: music. We are so glad he did because his music is a true blessing to the scene.</p>

<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;How can you stand me, when I just toss and turn? When I stay up every night just to try and make it work? I&#8217;ll break it down, I do it all the time babe. I&#8217;ll tear it down, I do it all the time babe. So I&#8217;m asking, how you stand me, and all my songs? About the ways I still regret all the things I wish I&#8217;d done? I&#8217;ll tear it down, I do it all the time babe. I&#8217;ll break it down, I do it all the time babe. So I&#8217;m asking. Love if I can&#8217;t save myself from drowning under water, and I can&#8217;t find another way to fill my bones, how can you stand me?&#8221; &#8211; Ward, Stand Me</em></p></blockquote>
