"I was thrilled when director Jack Baric asked me to score the movie
"Port Town." It was an opportunity to create music of many different
styles for one project. The documentary required very unique pieces
of music filled with different moods, dramatic nuances and dynamics.
My wife, Beth, suggested I write a song for the end credits. My goal
for the song, "This Town," was to support the movie thematically and
lyrically. My band, Olio, had a great time recording it. I am proud
to be a part of San Pedro history and thank God for this experience.
Thanks for listening!" Arif Hodzic
