Nico Boesten - What Matters (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)

Full story and song download: http://nicogroove.com/what-matters

3 years after my dad died of cancer, I had an incredibly life-like dream where I not only saw my dad, but encountered him in a way that changed my life. This song is a response to that encounter & I was fortunate enough to have an amazing videographer (Jan Vozenilek) capture this footage shot on my dad's grave.

Dedicated to my dad, my best friend, and encourager until his last breath: Henk Boesten (1948 - 2008)

Written by Nico Boesten along with Andrew Smith & Norm Strauss

I have known Nico for I think 12 years or so now. I also had the pleasure of knowing his dad. Nico is a man filled with a passion for life, his family and his beliefs as his dad was. Henk Boesten was quite the amazing man. I encourage all of you who have never heard his music to explore it. Enjoy the gift this man has and the passion behind his writing, his music and life.
