Tito Deler: "My Fine Reward"

"My Fine Reward"

Blues musician Tito Deler combines the sounds of his New York upbringing with the style of pre-war Mississippi Delta blues. He takes the stage, singing and strumming a stirring rendition of his song, "My Fine Reward."

Through the soulful strains of blues music, longing for relief from hardship gives way to a vision of hope and reward. The lyrics evoke two trains running side by side, carrying passengers from cold, troubled ground to a place of warmth and plenty. Imagery of golden streets and many rooms in a welcoming house captures the promise of comfort and belonging beyond life's struggles. Music becomes a vehicle for faith, transformation, and the search for a better world.
