“Spiritual Surgery is about me crying out for help,” said Apropos. “I wrote this song when I was in a dark place before the pandemic. I was depressed about what was happening with my career. It felt like lot of doors were closing. The same way people need medical procedures to fix their bodies, I needed Spiritual Surgery to fix my soul.”
Spiritual Surgery is dedicated to Apropos’ late friend, mentor and collaborator Allee Willis, who co-wrote legendary hits like Earth, Wind & Fire’s September and the Friends theme song I’ll Be There For You.
Apropos has multiple projects planned for the remainder of 2022. Learn more at www.veryapropos.com.
