Grief changes people, but it can also shape art that speaks to others in their own moments of struggle. Jay Putty’s new single Big Big Dreams rises from that space, carrying the weight of loss while leaning toward a future filled with possibility. It is both a reflection of what he has endured and a reminder that healing often comes one small step at a time.
The song was written in the wake of three difficult years, during which Putty said goodbye to his father, grandmother, and a close friend. Instead of allowing that pain to silence him, he transformed it into a track that feels gentle yet powerful. His vocal delivery is rich with vulnerability, but what lingers is the quiet strength underneath. When the chorus opens up, it does not overwhelm; it reassures, lifting the listener with a sense of hope that feels earned rather than imagined.
Musically, Big Big Dreams moves with a cinematic scope. The verses are intimate, almost confessional, while the chorus swells into something vast and horizon-like. It is easy to picture this song soundtracking a journey down an open road or the closing scene of a film where light finally breaks through darkness. That ability to blend personal storytelling with visual resonance is why Putty’s catalog has found a natural home in sync licensing for film, television, and branded campaigns.
This release builds on the momentum of his Mountains and Valleys EP and his stirring single If We Go Down, both of which drew national television appearances and acclaim from respected outlets. Yet with Big Big Dreams, Putty seems to have reached a new depth. He is not only chronicling his experiences of fire, loss, and mental health battles; he is turning them into shared moments of recognition and relief for his audience.
Ultimately, Big Big Dreams is a song about choosing to believe in what lies ahead even when the past still lingers in memory. It is a tender and resilient statement from an artist who has learned how to turn adversity into light. Jay Putty has crafted not just another single, but a soundtrack for anyone who needs to be reminded that tomorrow is worth holding onto.
