First Listen: Ann Hampton Callaway Raises Her Voice About Gun Control in New Demo

Following last week's tragic school shooting in Parkland Florida, Ann Hampton Callaway decided to raise her voice about gun control. Callaway writes:

After the Parkland massacre, I decided to finish a gun control song I started last year after anther shooting. My whole life I have never understood why extremely dangerous guns are so easily accessible. After JFK was killed, CBS went to our school and asked kids what should be done. I was five and replied, "Ban bullets." This is my first demo of the song. It might change. But wanted to get it out as soon as possible.
