Mike Basmajian's "Please Find Me" is a whisper from deep, a soul-baring wail that stands outside of time. With a vocal as comforting as weathered wood and sunshine, it's a welcome dose of genuine warmth that's increasingly elusive in today's musical landscape. Mike Basmajian's "Please Find Me" deserves ears, hearts, and a spot among the songs that don't fade out. It teaches that music isn't always about the next big thing. Sometimes, it's about the silent truths we carry all our lives and only get a chance to speak at last.
It sounds like Mike Basmajian's voice is burdened. It doesn't chase trends but is honest, weathered, and conviction-filled. In every note, you can hear years of lived experience. The lyrics are reaching up with quiet desperation and hope, and they have to do with redemption, presence, and wanting to be seen, which isn't necessarily by the world itself but by something higher. That profoundly personal yet universal feeling makes the song hit home. At its heart, "Please Find Me" is about longing for connection, grace, and purpose. And it's something that every listener, no matter who they are, can feel.
What gives this release even more emotional weight is the tale behind it. A son fighting to keep his father's voice from being silenced amid all that he built and achieved. Together, they've made more than a track: They've created a moment. A moment of commemoration for what has passed that part's critical, a moment that speaks to an already angering lack, a seeming void that anyhow is gonna fill and burst, and so on, and a moment that reaches out, with wide open hands, to whoever in the vicinity is willing to listen.
Mike Basmajian is a former songwriter and musician who has spent his whole life writing songs that more accurately portray the course of his life and faith. But with the help of his son, who, as producer and manager, helps to grease those wheels, the world gets to hear him again. "Please Find Me" is not a song but a love letter, a prayer, and a legacy.
