His latest album has been a ten year long labor of love, and Alexander Zonjic isn’t about to let COVID-19 get in the way of releasing it. The flutist said he finished the album Playing It Forward in March, and that releasing it during the pandemic created an interesting challenge. Zonjic said even he was surprised by how long Playing It Forward took to finish, and that the time flew by while he was working on other projects. With the music industry practically shut down, the question became whether to release the album, or try to wait it out. Zonjic showed a clip from his new Detroit-centric music video for his song “Motor City Sway” from Playing It Forward.
