Released on June 8, 2024, by The Patti Spadaro Band, "Glass Shatters" is a powerful anthem that celebrates the strength, resilience, and progress of women. The song was born from a moment of profound inspiration during the winter of 2020-2021, as Patti Spadaro watched the historic swearing-in of the first female Vice President of the United States. Reflecting on that moment, Spadaro recalls, “I was so excited to finally be represented in the second highest seat of our government. I wanted to celebrate this historic moment together. This was a true moment of progress.”
"Glass Shatters" captures this spirit of celebration and determination, urging women from all walks of life to unite and continue pushing forward. Spadaro describes the song as a "rallying cry," emphasizing the importance of persistence and collective effort in achieving lasting change. The chorus, with its powerful message—“Keep rising up, never giving up, Hear us Roar, Hear us Roar”—echoes the sentiments of empowerment and resilience that have fueled women's rights movements for decades.
The song's composition reflects its message of unity and strength, featuring the harmonizing voices of five women. Patti Spadaro's lead guitar work is complemented by Anne Celedonia on keys, with background vocalists Cherylann Hawk, Jill Simmons, and Alison McTavish adding depth and richness to the track. Drummer and recording engineer Eric Kurtzrock and bassist Ryan Black also contribute to the song’s dynamic sound, recorded at Blue Door Recorders in Pittsburgh.
