What's happening with Dave Panico ....
Greetings,
It’s been a while since I’ve checked in, and honestly, I’ve missed sharing music and connecting with all of you!
Life gets busy. Sometimes it gets exciting, sometimes challenging, and sometimes just plain heavy. But one thing hasn’t changed—the sax is still in my hands, music is still in my heart, and there are still plenty of melodies waiting to be played. One of the things I love most about making music is the opportunity to lift people up.
I’ve had people come up to me after performances and tell me that my music was refreshing, relaxing, encouraging, or simply gave them a little boost. That means more to me than you might realize.
As an instrumentalist, I don't have spoken words to deliver while I play, so I try to let the music speak to the heart.
Many of my songs have a story or special meaning behind them:
🎷 Rising Up — This song is about the Sun and the Son. The sun rises every day, even though we may not always see it through the clouds or darkness. I see that as a reminder that Jesus is still shining in our lives, even when we're going through difficult seasons.
🎷 Bumba-Way — This one started as a silly little song I used to sing to my kids when they were younger. Later, I realized what “Bumba-Way” meant to me: a father's joy. My kids have brought me incredible joy, and you and I are also a joy to our Father in Heaven
🎷 Break’n Free — Life can weigh us down. There are plenty of things that can leave us feeling overwhelmed or stuck. This song is about letting go of those burdens and finding freedom in God.
🎷 Get Up And Walk — This song was inspired by the story of Jesus healing the paralyzed man and telling him to get up, take up his mat, and walk. It's a reminder of hope, healing, and moving forward.
🎷 I Will Celebrate, Pump’N & Samba — Sometimes we simply need to have some FUN! Laugh. Celebrate. Get goofy. Enjoy the moment. I loved getting silly with my kids, and I think we could all use a little more laughter in our lives.
🎷 On Wings Of An Angel — I’ve always wondered what it would feel like to soar through the sky on the wings of an angel. That feeling of freedom inspired this song. Isaiah 40:31 talks about those who hope in the Lord renewing their strength and soaring on wings like eagles. That idea also helped inspire the name Soaring Saxman.
And the journey isn't over. 🎶
I’m still writing and composing music, and I’m hoping to get some new songs recorded. Over the past year or so, I’ve also had the opportunity to perform at many private parties and special events, which has been a real blessing.
But enough about me
I’d love to hear from YOU! ❤️
