This song was written years ago in the practice band room of my home, on hardwood floors that seemed to echo everything gathering we, the band Someone’s Sister, brought into the space.
Katherine, Tammy Somersett, and I came together there, with Tammy laying down another heartfelt chord progression she had written. Through a process of free singing, we began exploring a shared idea—how, within the walls of a home, small wars are often waged against those we love the most. Moments where people stop hearing one another, forgetting who they are and what they mean to each other.
We called the song One Minute War to capture those brief but powerful disconnections. It’s a reflection, and a hope—that when we find ourselves in conflict with the people we love most, we can choose to lay down our weapons and return to the peace those spaces were meant to hold.
As always, Katherine has always been powerfully able to paint the lyrics with such intense harmony. We hope you can feel the passion in the meaning of this song.
