Debut Single- Don’t Pray For Me



On his debut single 'Don't Pray For Me,' Soda Canter celebrates the blessings of his imperfect life while finding faith again. The guitar driven, classic leaning country tune was inspired by people in his life weaponizing prayer with a "I'll pray for you..." here and a "I hope God watches over you..." there while turning a judgmental nose up at his life choices. This song finds Soda proudly owning who he is and releasing himself from those experiences.

A Roadside Dream

It all began outside of a roadside Moose Lodge. Like most great dreams do. He heard his Momma sing Tammy Wynette, Dolly Parton, and Dottie West to a crowded room of drunken locals. Only six years old at the time, he wasn’t allowed entry into the bar. He stood on his tiptoes to see through the cracked window panes. Sure it was the crowd bobbing along to a known string of hits. But what was truly memorable was the look on his Momma’s face. Pure joy. And at that moment, he was hooked. Soda notes now that she once said to him, “Country music is like the bible. I live it. It can tell us what to do, what not to do. It can tear you up from the inside. And when you sing it, you better tell the truth.” 


Influences 

Soda seeks to carry on his Momma’s torch for this music and wants to continue to discover his own truth through the process.
