Clef nite Writes a Tribute Song for Boston City

Boston, March 29, 2014 – Berklee student, Boston resident Clef Nite, acoustic guitarist/singer and student at the Berklee College of Music has a song in his heart, “The Boston Song.”  He dedicates his song to the spirit and pride of Bostonians.  

Nite was inspired to write “The Boston Song” because of the indelible spirit that he felt and saw as the city of Boston recovered from the Marathon bombings in 2013. Nite noticed Bostonians sharing a common bond, the bond of the human heart as they rebuilt their city.  There is a certain empathy required for making music, and as Nite sings and plays guitar in his heartfelt song it is both encouraging and patriotic.  It speaks to the diversity, pride and historic nature of Boston.
