THE SONG
​'Chance Acquaintance' explores the beautiful truth that some of the most significant people enter our lives not through careful planning, but through pure, unscripted chance. With an infectious groove, this composition captures the wonder of discovering that the person you bumped into, sat beside, or shared a moment with on life's winding road often becomes the catalyst for your most positive transformations.
