Cory Cullinan shares timely and haunting “2025 Alive”

Cory Cullinan is a man of many talents, not only is he a famed composer and chart-topping musician, but he is also an author, award-winning teacher, speaker, and studio owner. The captivator has shared a new timely and contemplative release entitled “2025 Alive”.

“2025 Alive” features the contribution from his two daughters, singer-songwriter Riley Max and director Sidney Cullinan. The result is a thought-provocative contemplation on what it means to be alive in 2025, especially in the United States. Cory confides, “They express the myriad of thoughts and feelings we’ve had during this unconventional cultural year that, regardless of where you stand… feels like a test of some sort. A test of new ideas. Of old ideas in a modern world. Of stamina. Willpower. Intellect. Empathy. Patriotism.” The result is an all encompassing musical and visual embrace filled with deeply evocative imagery and colliding sounds. Jarring, unsettling, emotional, riveting and hopeful, contemplative are all words to describe the intense watching experience. The music is filled with dynamic textures including glitchy guitars, layered synths, raw vocals, loops of keytars, and even saxophone riffs, making for a one-of-a-kind listening experience.

With so much upheaval, confusion, and political chaos, “2025 Alive” captures how many of us feel in our current world. Check out the dynamic new piece now.
