ANTHONY JOHN SISSIAN’s “SET FREE TO BE” is a positive dance song about the light within us all, and we should all be free to be ourselves. The song captures a shared sense of possibility, not self-expression as a battle against others. Its message is an invitation for listeners to celebrate their own individuality and to recognize the light that can be found in one another.
Sissian tells how the song came to him in the early hours of the morning, with the music and words coming together as a whole. He felt less like someone deliberately composing a picture, more like a scribe receiving an idea. Creativity can come when you allow inspiration to come to you.
“SET FREE TO BE” translates its message into a dance setting, giving its uplifting perspective a natural sense of movement. This is about the freedom to exist authentically and appreciate what makes each of us unique. Sissian reminds us that acceptance can be fun, build community, and feel liberating.
