Uncuffed My Mixtape: 'Spring'

KALW / Uncuffed

In honor of the changing season, we’re bringing you some fresh music. It’s a special piece from Uncuffed, the program where people in prison get to tell their own stories. André Davis interviewed Lee Jaspar about a song he wrote that later became even more special, once he met the love of his life.

The first thing I thought is, wow, 'Spring' is the perfect song for her because it's finally a story that fits my life.
