Home Means Nevada gets 2020 update with new song arrangement, video
With the same melody and lyrics, Eric has filled in the sound with horns, drums, musicians and singers from all over all the state including some Carson High School students. The song and video is set to release just before Nevada Day 2020.
Carson City manager Nancy Paulsen who helped spearhead the project notes, “As we navigate through these unusual times, we are having to find new ways to celebrate the traditions that shape our lives. Although this year we are not able to celebrate Nevada Day the same way we have for so many years, I’m honored to be part of the Home Means Nevada video tribute to Nevada’s 156th Birthday."
The video and song will be released on Thursday morning, Oct. 29 and links will be available on the Brewery Arts Center’s website and social media pages as well as participating radio stations, city and state entities and organizations throughout the state. The video is meant to celebrate and unite Nevadan’s in our love for our state, bringing together familiar faces and scenery from all over our great state.
“When I arrived in Reno for the first time in 2008, I never would have imagined I’d someday have the opportunity to produce a song for our awe-inspiring state, which I now proudly call home. It’s been so much fun to work on this project with such a talented and enthusiastic cast of people—from Carson to Vegas, from Reno to Tahoe. Thanks so much to Gina Lopez, the Brewery Arts Center, and Carson City for asking me to spearhead this. Home Means Nevada to me”, says arranger Eric Henry Andersen.
Everyone who has grown up in the Carson City School District knows Home Means Nevada and because Nevada Day looks a bit different this year, we thought it necessary to spread a little Nevada pride with this fun and danceable version of our beloved state song.
