Album

Some stories need music

All the Cares in the World is a tribute album that distills years of caregiving, heartbreak, humor, and love into song. Written by Cindi Maciolek and her brother Phil Maq, the album spans a wide range of musical styles and emotions — from the funny to the tender to the quietly devastating.

The title song began as a poem Cindi wrote in the middle of the night, trying to capture everything she had been through in a few short verses. It became the heart of the album and the foundation of the entire All the Cares in the World project.

An original polka honors the family’s heritage. It’s a party in a song.
