“‘Reason To Live’ is a song I wrote just over two years ago after losing a close friend to suicide. I wrote this song in one night and posted it on social media,” says Gagnon regarding the writing process. “I knew these words could impact people, and it would almost be selfish to not give that to the people who need to hear them.” The seventeen-year-old viral sensation currently holds over 5 million streams on Spotify alone, and is dedicated to using his platform to helping others.

The New Hampshire native is wise beyond his years. “Pain is something you can’t put into words” sings Gagnon as he turns that pain into purpose. Gagnon wants listeners around the globe to know that they are never alone, there is always someone that will help them find a ‘reason to live.’
