Ron Ovadia

Southern California-based songwriter and Emmy® nominee Ron Ovadia has been creating songs with meaning for years. He believes that music has a powerful purpose and can help connect people to a greater cause and to each other. His latest “anthems of hope” include:

• "Your Beloved Home" - dedicated to the people of Ukraine, who are fighting for their freedom

• "No Place For Hate" -  an antidote to the rising tide of hate and disharmony that is so pervasive

• "One Step at a Time" - part of a song score (Grant/Ovadia) for the internationally-touring CINDERELLA ON ICE

• "Tomorrow’s Child" - the featured song in EPCOT’s SPACESHIP EARTH for 20 years

• "Voices of Democracy" (Levine/Ovadia) - honoring the Green Movement in Iran (2009)

• "Heroes Of The Front Line" - honoring our first responders in our time of need

• "Make America Whole Again" - about restoring unity to our divided country

 

His predilection toward anthem-like songs took a literal turn when he co-authored the English translation of the Swiss National Anthem (2020).

Besides focusing on aspirational songs, Ron has written many other songs, including:

• "Crossing the Line" (Ovadia/Josefs) - the title song of the film of the same name

• "If God Can Forgive Me" (Ovadia/Grant/Kimmel) - an award-winning Country song

• "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" (Grant/Ovadia) - the Emmy® nominated title song for the animated TV series

• "When You’ve Got Imagination" (Grant/Ovadia) - an award-winning composition
