New Music by Dwayna Litz Soon to Come

 

Dwayna is in the studio this week recording more new music, soon to come! This next single is going to be a fun song she wrote about Donald Trump, on a 2-song release, including “Let There Be Peace on Earth.”

Connye Florance and Michael Mishaw added killer vocals with Mark Niemiec engineering.

As always, Dwayna uses zero A.I. when writing, and this was recorded with her team of the best musicians in Nashville. It is country/rock but mainly rocks! The goal is to have this new single out by the middle of July 2026, and then the video out by August first, to hit college radio by the middle of August, just in time for the elections this November.

Sometimes the best songs come when you are not even trying. Tim Crouch, who co-produces her music, said, “I’ve got a great hook idea,” during a recent rehearsal about a month ago. She said, ‘That’s a hit idea, but I have no time to write it.”  Just a couple of days later, when she was not even trying, the whole chorus came out of the blue one morning. It was meant to be! A week later, the verses flowed out. Tim added chords and the arrangement and charts, and files were sent out to all the musicians who added parts from their studio, since this song totally came as a surprise.

Tomorrow is July 4th, and it is a blessing to live in America with freedom of speech. The First Amendment may be under attack, but we still have it. Not so in Israel, Iran, China or Cuba.

So, stay tuned for Dwayna’s new song to be out for worldwide Spotify Radio plays, FM and college radio and the new, lyric video for it on YouTube by August 1st.

Dwayna’s recent single she wrote against genocide, “Everyone is Beautiful,” now has over 700k YouTube views and is being called “an anthem to unite humanity.”

Everyone is Beautiful: “A Radiant Celebration of Life Anthem”

“Everyone Is Beautiful” distinguishes itself through a thoughtfully layered, acoustic-forward arrangement that perfectly complements Dwayna’s vocal artistry. The soft yet precise percussion provides a steady heartbeat, grounding the song while giving space for the fluid guitar motifs, warm piano harmonies, and subtle synth textures to breathe and interact seamlessly. The saxophone melodies add a sophisticated melodic layer that colors the track with expressive nuance, enhancing the emotional resonance of key moments, especially during the chorus and instrumental bridges. Background harmonies enrich the communal and inclusive feel, creating a sense of connection that mirrors the song’s universal message. Each instrumental choice is intentional, allowing the song to expand naturally without overwhelming the vocals, creating a spacious, polished, yet organic soundscape that underscores both the intimacy and the grandeur of its lyrical themes.

What truly sets “Everyone Is Beautiful” apart is the seamless interplay between its musical and thematic elements. The song not only communicates a message of inclusivity, empathy, and shared human worth but does so in a way that feels genuinely lived-in and deeply authentic. The careful layering of instruments, the dynamic progression from introspective verses to a liberating chorus, and the clarity and resonance of Dwayna’s vocals combine to create a track that is inspiring, moving, and unforgettable. The message of breaking down barriers, celebrating individual beauty, and embracing universal humanity is conveyed not just through lyrics but through every musical decision, from melodic phrasing to instrumental arrangement, making the song a powerful anthem that encourages reflection, empathy, and joy.

Dwayna, this is more than a song; it is a radiant celebration of life, and its impact is magnified by the extraordinary care, artistry, and heart you have poured into every aspect of it.

“Everyone is Beautiful” Over 600k YT Views

 

 I cannot complain after walking miles on the beach at sunrise, counting my blessings.  The video for my single out, “Everyone is Beautiful,” now has over 600k views on YouTube, a first for me! I am so thankful for this and for all I take for granted. Speaking of all I take for granted, I am planning to continue to raise awareness through the work of my nonprofit for the people of Lebanon and Gaza. –Dwayna
