“No Stopping Us” by Joshua Ketchmark is a powerful and emotive song that delves into the coming of age experience. Written from the perspective of a small town youth, the song explores the struggles and triumphs of growing up and finding one’s own way. The lyrics are evocative and relatable, painting a vivid picture of the journey from innocence to adulthood.
Musically, the song is an impressive display of Ketchmark’s skills as a producer, engineer, and mixer, as well as his abilities as a singer-songwriter. The addition of talented musicians such as C.C. Wyle, Zak St. John, Ger Hoffman, Michael Webb and Sadler Vaden, lend a richness and depth to the sound, making it a standout track on the album.
The use of vocal harmonies, drums, percussion, bass, organ and electric guitar have a way of creating a dynamic and energy-packed musical experience that is hard to resist. The song reaches the listener’s core with a sense of nostalgia and longing as you listen to it. It is a track that reminds us that no matter what happens, nothing can stop us from being who we are meant to be.
