The Buffalo Reflex newspaper recently featured Music Therapy of Therapy of the Rockies’ retreat attendee Jason Golden.

Last spring Jason Golden had the opportunity of a lifetime when he spent a week’s retreat at Amy Grant’s farm near Nashville. Music Therapy of the Rockies organized the veterans’ retreat, where they paired veterans with a writer with similar backgrounds. Golden paired with Mark Elliott, a songwriter. Elliott wrote “Every Man for Himself” for Neal McCoy. The two writers got to know each other over the week, and Elliott listened to Golden’s story and life.

Through that collaboration, together they wrote the song “Livin’ Up to Golden.” Read the full story of Jason’s experience.
