Sarah Copley of West Windsor has released a single entitled “Everyone’s Your Friend,” an anti-bullying song produced by Emmy-nominated composer and producer Craig Brandwynne. Copley recorded the vocals at Audible Images Recording Studio in Pennsylvania. The song, part of the “Read With Max” series, is receiving recognition as an anthem for children and adults, and gay and lesbian organizations against bullying.
The music video was produced by Center Sound Records with executive producer Bert Szostak (Copley’s father) and direction by Penn State University student Griffin Boustany. Filmed around State College, Pennsylvania, the video features several recognizable areas around the Penn State University campus.
Copley is a senior public relations and strategic communications major at Penn State. She attended Grover Middle School and High School South, where she was an active member of both of their chorus ensembles. Her first solo public debut was at the age of 13, and she has been performing to live audiences ever since. When not studying, she has been writing and recording original songs produced by musician and producer Marc Muller.
A portion of the proceeds from downloads of “Everyone’s Your Friend” will be donated to anti-bullying organizations. Download the single on iTunes.com, Amazon.com, or CDBaby.com; and visit youtube/kANp6-TSLeE to view the video.
“I believe the song ‘Everyone’s your Friend’ is a powerful anthem for anti-bullying,” says Copley. “It encourages people to be kind to one another and be confident in who they are.”
