From the Upcoming Amazon Prime Video Limited Series The Gray House

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Today, The War And Treaty unveil “If This Day (From The Gray House Original Soundtrack),” a powerful new recording featured on the forthcoming soundtrack to Amazon Prime Video’s highly anticipated limited series The Gray House, arriving February 26, listen HERE.
Written by legendary 17x Oscar®-nominated songwriter Diane Warren and performed with the duo’s signature soul-baring intensity, “If This Day” captures the emotional weight at the heart of The Gray House — a story of courage, sacrifice, and quiet resilience during one of the most pivotal moments in American history. The track blends gospel-rooted harmonies and sweeping orchestration, allowing Michael and Tanya Trotter’s voices to carry both strength and vulnerability in equal measure.
“‘If This Day’ is not only about these brave women of The Gray House,” shared Diane Warren. “It also applies to us all, to look at ourselves and ask ourselves did we do all we could do, did we stand up for those we needed to stand up for, did we live enough, love enough, forgive enough. Did you do the best you could do with the time you were given on this earth?”
Produced by Desmond Child, Marti Frederiksen, and Leslie Greif, the song stands as one of the soundtrack’s most moving centerpieces, channeling both the historical gravity of the series and the timeless humanity of its characters.
“When Diane asked us to listen to the song in her studio, Michael and I were immediately captured by the lyrics,” said Tanya Trotter. Michael also commented, “Every day we all need to ask ourselves the questions asked in this song. It’s our way of staying humble and always in the posture of servanthood.”
One of the most compelling live acts in American roots music today, The War And Treaty have earned widespread acclaim for their electrifying performances and genre-blurring blend of soul, gospel, country, and rock. The duo are two-time GRAMMY® nominees, have received multiple ACM and CMA nominations, and were named Duo/Group of the Year at the Americana Honors & Awards. They have performed everywhere from the Grand Ole Opry to the Super Bowl pregame stage and recently earned praise from The New York Times, which hailed that “love and connection is vital to the War and Treaty’s mission..” Their ability to balance emotional storytelling with explosive vocal chemistry makes them a natural fit for a project as historically resonant and emotionally driven as The Gray House.
The release follows the soundtrack’s first offering, Willie Nelson’s “Heart Of America,” which serves as a thematic anchor for the project. The moving ballad reflects on sacrifice, perseverance, and the enduring fight for freedom, pairing Nelson’s unmistakable voice with the series’ central message about the quiet bravery that shapes history. Together, Nelson’s “Heart Of America” and The War And Treaty’s “If This Day” set the emotional tone for the full soundtrack, offering two distinct yet complementary perspectives that underscore the depth and spirit of The Gray House. Additional artists on the project include Lainey Wilson, Yolanda Adams, Shania Twain, Killer Mike, Adrienne Warren, and more.
Premiering February 26 on Prime Video, The Gray House tells the extraordinary true story of four women who operate an Underground Railroad network that evolves into a daring espionage ring, risking everything to help preserve the nation’s future. The series is executive produced by Kevin Costner, Morgan Freeman and Lori McCreary with music playing a central role in shaping its emotional and cultural landscape.
The full Gray House (Original Soundtrack From the Amazon Series) will be available across all platforms February 26.
