'Sometimes, one moment is all it takes to send your life in a completely different direction. One moment of courage or one moment of cowardice and everything will be different.'

Anxiety and self-doubt have stopped Aiden playing in front of anyone but his Dad and his guitar teacher Zach despite his incredible musical abilities.
But soon Aiden realizes the power of music is bigger than him.
Join Aiden as he overcomes his fear of performing and uses the power of music to liberate himself and those around him.
