Will Claye's interest in music goes back to his days at Phoenix Mountain Pointe High School when he would burn CDs of his work for his friends.
"You couldn't just throw something on iTunes back then," says Claye, now a two-time Olympian with three medals. "It's always been a passion of mine. I want to be just as recognized as an artist as I am as an athlete and not be put in a box."
The 28-year-old is taking another leap outside track with a song called "Dreams Don't Die," recorded March 24 in his home studio about the one-year postponement of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
