Then there\u2019s our chosen family\u2014friends and community\u2014the people we gather around us, love, and trust. We also have a musical family, and when you put all of those together, they form the world family,\u201d says Franti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He continues, \u201cRight now, the world is in a time of upheaval, change, and uncertainty, leading to anxiety and fear for so many. This album is about channeling those emotions\u2014what I experience every day\u2014and translating them into songs that others can connect with.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lead single,&nbsp;<strong>\u201cBreak Up With Everything,\u201d&nbsp;<\/strong>captures that sentiment perfectly, encouraging listeners to let go of anything no longer serving them. With its stripped-down acoustic vibe, the song has quickly become a fan favorite. The follow-up track,&nbsp;<strong>\u201cBe Who You Are,\u201d&nbsp;<\/strong>is a joyful anthem inspired by Franti\u2019s mom and her encouragement to embrace his individuality. Franti describes the song as&nbsp;<em>\u201ca reminder that it\u2019s okay (and beautiful) to be exactly who you are.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His most recent single,&nbsp;<strong>\u201cRise Up,\u201d&nbsp;<\/strong>is a powerful call to face fear with courage.&nbsp;<em>\u201cRise Up is about facing my fears first thing in the morning, looking in the mirror, and saying, \u2018Not today\u2026\u2019\u201d&nbsp;<\/em>Franti shared. The track will be featured in the&nbsp;<strong>2025 NCAA March Madness Tournament&nbsp;<\/strong>broadcast, bringing its message of resilience to millions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All three singles are available now, with official music videos streaming on&nbsp;<strong>Michael Franti\u2019s YouTube channel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To celebrate the release, Franti &amp; Spearhead will hit the road for the&nbsp;<strong>Welcome to the Family Tour<\/strong>, a nationwide summer trek focused on spreading unity, connection, and positivity through music. The tour kicks off in&nbsp;<strong>May 2025<\/strong>, with stops at&nbsp;<strong>Red Rocks Amphitheatre<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Pier 17<\/strong>, and more. Known for his immersive performances, Franti transforms his concerts into celebrations of togetherness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThis tour isn\u2019t just about the music\u2014it\u2019s about celebrating what really matters: connection, resilience, and finding light even in tough times,\u201d&nbsp;<\/em>Franti explains.&nbsp;<em>&#8220;We\u2019re also excited to welcome our friends Allen Stone, Niko Moon, Bombargo, The Elovators, and Ripe on this tour. They\u2019re all incredibly talented and truly embody what the Welcome to the Family Tour is all about,&#8221;&nbsp;<\/em>he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the album and tour, Franti is preparing for the third voyage of&nbsp;<strong>Soulshine at Sea<\/strong>, his immersive music and wellness cruise.&nbsp;<strong>Soulshine at Sea 3&nbsp;<\/strong>will set sail in&nbsp;<strong>November 2025<\/strong>, featuring an all-star lineup including&nbsp;<strong>Dispatch, Allen Stone, Hirie, Tropidelic<\/strong>, and more. The four-day experience blends live music, wellness offerings from HIIT classes to yoga, inspiring speakers, and community. The event sold out a full year in advance, underscoring the deep connection and excitement surrounding Franti\u2019s extended musical family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond music, Franti continues his humanitarian work through&nbsp;<strong>Soulshine Bali<\/strong>, a forty-room, five-star boutique retreat in Ubud, Indonesia, and&nbsp;<strong>Do It For The Love<\/strong>, the nonprofit he&nbsp;co-founded with his wife. The organization has granted over&nbsp;<strong>3,500 live music wishes<\/strong>, touching more than&nbsp;<strong>15,000 lives&nbsp;<\/strong>for individuals facing life-threatening illnesses, veterans, and children with severe challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Franti\u2019s career is defined by his ability to turn hardship into hope, fostering unity through music, activism, and philanthropy. Whether on stage, at his Bali retreat, or through his foundation, his purpose remains the same: to bring people together, lift spirits, and remind us all that we are part of something bigger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-4b2eccd6 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<p><em>Follow
