Alona Sofer Music - My American Dream (Official Lyrics Video)
If you believe in the American Dream or maybe think it doesn’t exist anymore, please consider listening to our story and share it with your family and friends.
Hello,
Our names are Alona and David Sofer.
Our story started back in 2016 when we decided to follow our hearts and pursue the “American Dream.”
We moved in 2017 from Israel to Kansas with just our two dogs; Fender & Gibson. — The beginning was rough; entry level positions, cultural shock and loneliness sat at our doorstep. Memories of days when we had little to our name and no plans in place, still play in our minds, but what stands out vividly to this day, is the dream we were ready to begin chasing and the path that unfolded before us to begin pursuing our “American Dream.”
We were no strangers to hard times; as we both served in the Israeli Defense Forces, and David was a law enforcement officer for years. We had witnessed war, terror attacks, and each had experienced heavy, personal loss. However, none of that was going to stop us. We were set on a dream to make music and took the leap, heads first.
The initial step in our pursuit led us to Topeka, KS where we met incredible and generous people who not only embraced us, but provided us a family during challenging times. Although a blessing, our journey was quickly growing, and the next step was leading us to Colorado. David secured a job as a law enforcement officer in a small town, and we bought our first home in America. It was a huge win for us, and quickly lead us to record our first EP album, “Still on Top.”
Taking a financial risk, we recorded locally and began playing small gigs in the area to gain awareness. Everything was going well and talks began of our next single…but then life happened. The whole world stopped for two years and that was it. Our dream came to a halt, and held on by guitar strings as we worked to maintain music throughout trying times. During that time however, our family grew as we welcomed our daughter, Joy. She came to us after years of difficulties, perfect in every way. As if it were meant to be, she filled a puzzle piece in our journey that allowed us to grow in ways we never imagined. A fire was lit once again, and new sounds were fighting to emerge.
The world changed, but so did we. With this change came the realization that our “American Dream” was reachable, and that we only needed to take the final step. That is how we found ourselves Tennessee bound, and creative fires lit! it was time for the Alona Sofer family to make music again. Once again, we packed our stuff and this time chased the horizon to Trousdale County, TN, just 45 minutes away from Nashville. Landing in the world of musical opportunities, our next destination was making a forever home.
Now here we are today telling the story, five years into our dream chasing. Our new song ‘My American Dream’ is our story, but also a testimony to our love for this great country and the brave people of America. We are truly blessed to be a part of this nation and we are proud Americans. We hope that you will listen to our song and share it with your friends and family. If you still believe that we can make it through and we can do it together as one nation, please join us and support our efforts to bring our music to more people and make more dreams come true.
We love and appreciate everyone who has joined us on this journey. Thank you for taking the time to listen to our story and our song, ‘My American Dream’.
Yours Truly,
The Sofer Family
