The Deployment Song (Prod. Ben Bandz) by Emay Holmes published on 2017-05-25T16:14:28Z Emay Holmes is a serving airman on USS Nimitz; by day he helps launch F-18 jets from the flight deck and by night he crafts heart-wrenching soul music in the depths of the boat. ‘The Deployment Song’ (Prod. Ben Bandz) is the first release from Emay’s upcoming ‘Deep Down’ LP. It’s a weighty ballad that explores the trials of military life, an existence where relationships are pulled to breaking point by extended periods away from home.
