Cherish the time you spend with the ones you love.

If there is one message to be learned from time’s passing, it’s to make the most of every moment, no matter how fleeting or insignificant it feels. Life throws more responsibilities and more opportunities at us as we grow older, leaving us with less and less time to dedicate to friends, family, and general free/play time. It’s easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle; sometimes, we can’t avoid that distance. We have no way of knowing how much time we really have with the ones we love, but time is all we’ve got – so make it count, and make it last! Matt Koelsch and Georgia Feroce embrace the moment and capture the heartwarming spirit of friendship in their new song “All My Friends,” a passionate outpouring of love and affection.

It’s been awhile since we’ve seen this place
Let it all out, breakin’ away from the race
Dancing around
with that smile on your face
It brings me back to the good old days

Atwood Magazine is proud to be premiering “All My Friends,” the brand new single by singer/songwriter Matt Koelsch and Georgia Feroce. A familiar face at Atwood, Los Angeles-based Matt Koelsch has a penchant for laying his soul on the line through heartfelt lyrics that bleed authenticity. In introducing his 2018 single “Thinking of You” off the debut EP of the same name we lauded Koelsch’s ability to craft “soothing, melodic songs” while “injecting beauty via dynamics and harmony.”

“All My Friends” is Koelsch’s first release of 2019, as well as the first piece of new material since the Thinking of You EP came out last July. Upbeat and jangly, the song is a sweet drop of pure, radiant sunshine: Koelsch and fellow New England transplant Georgia Feroce (whose debut Cat & Mouse EP released in 2016) share center stage in a passionate, cheerful celebration of togetherness and connection.

A live and in-studio recording, “All My Friends” finds Koelsch and Feroce joined by Katelyn Redwood on piano and a nearly twenty other friends, all of whom join in on the song’s beautiful chorus:

All my friends, gather round,
and we’ll take on this old town
tap your glass, make it last
time always goes by so fast
One last night to pretend
There will never be an end
it brings me back
to the good old days

“When writing this song we connected through our own struggles of being apart from the people we grew up with and saw on a regular basis,” Matt Koelsch tells Atwood Magazine. “The distance has made us realize how special it is when we do get to spend time with family and friends, and it makes every reunion that much sweeter.”

Georgia Feroce adds, “True friendships do not suffer from time spent apart. With my best friends, we pick up right where we left off, as if no time has passed.”

The distance has made us realize how special it is when we do get to spend time with family and friends…

Fall on me, when you can’t hold your own
We can stumble together to find our home
Talking about all the people we’ve known
and it brings me back to the good old days

A bright and joyful memory now in its own right, “All My Friends” is a testament to the people who matter most, and a literal real-life embodiment of its own message: That coming-together of sorts that may never happen again, with some 20+ individuals in one room, all gathered for the same genial purpose. You will always have regrets; you will always have things you wish you said. Still, we can all avoid falling into the same trap of lost time and missed opportunities, if we simply take advantage of the time we do have and exist in each and every moment.

It’s a tall order, but a worthy standard by which all of us should live our lives. Catchy, spirited, and utterly smile-inducing, “All My Friends” is the meaningful tribute to being there and making it count that will hopefully wake us up, and inspire us to do the same thing. Join Matt Koelsch, Georgia Feroce, and all their friends in spreading the love and celebrating those who matter most!

All my friends, gather round,
and we’ll take on this old town
tap your glass, make it last
time always goes by so fast
One last night to pretend
There will never be an end
it brings me back
to the good old days
