When most people think of medical advocacy, they think of clinical studies, white papers, and traditional awareness campaigns.

But Silver House, the artist alias of Aspen Decker, is proving that sometimes the best way to break through the noise isn’t with another lecture—it’s with music.

The Song That Started It All

It all began with Silent Struggle, a deeply personal song dedicated to the caregivers who often go unseen and unheard. The lyrics painted an unfiltered picture of what it means to watch a loved one fade, to shoulder the responsibility, and to keep going despite the exhaustion, the heartbreak, and the silence.

“I wanted caregivers to know that they’re not alone,” Aspen explains. “Too many people feel invisible in this fight, like no one truly sees the weight they carry. Silent Struggle was my way of saying, ‘I see you. I hear you. And I’m fighting for you.’”

The song resonated far beyond what he expected. It wasn’t just caregivers who connected with the message—families, medical professionals, and even those living with early cognitive decline reached out, sharing how the song gave them a voice they didn’t know they needed.

And that’s when it hit him.

Why Music? Because Facts Alone Aren’t Enough.

For the last couple years, Aspen had been on a mission to change the way the world approaches cognitive health. But no matter how many studies he cited or how much data he shared, he kept running into the same problem: People don’t engage with medical facts the way they do with stories, emotion, and music.

That’s when he decided to do something no one else in the cognitive health space was doing—use music as an awareness weapon.

“Music hits differently,” Aspen says. “It’s personal. It’s emotional. It stays with you in ways that a statistic never will.”

So, he started writing more. He channeled his knowledge of dementia, Alzheimer’s, and cognitive decline into lyrics that could educate and inspire at the same time.

Flipping the Script on Dementia Awareness

His next song, 10 Ways, 1 Fight, took a direct approach, breaking down the 10 different types of dementia in a way that had never been done before. “Most people think dementia and Alzheimer’s are the same thing,” Aspen explains. “But they’re not. Each type has different causes, symptoms, and treatments. And people need to know that.”

With lyrics that laid out the key differences—Alzheimer’s, vascular dementia, FTD, Lewy body, Parkinson’s dementia, and more—the song turned education into something catchy, memorable, and easy to digest.

And then came The Outsider—an anthem of frustration and rebellion against a broken healthcare system. A direct call-out of the industry’s failures, the song ignited a movement. It wasn’t just about explaining dementia anymore. It was about exposing the barriers that were keeping people from real solutions.

Breaking the System to Fix It

From the beginning, Aspen has been fighting against the status quo. Without an Ivy League medical degree, without institutional backing, he stepped into the healthcare world and asked the hard questions no one else wanted to.

He wasn’t interested in maintaining the old system—he was building a new one.

And now, he’s using music as his loudspeaker.

With tracks like Breaking the Cycle, No Fate, and Changing the Chains, Silver House is blending activism, education, and raw emotion into something that cuts through the endless noise of social media, political debates, and healthcare bureaucracy.

67 Countries, 4 Million Followers, and a Global Impact

At first, people were skeptical. A medical disruptor making music? It sounded crazy. But the numbers don’t lie.

• Listeners across 67 countries have streamed Silver House’s music, proving that the message is resonating on a global scale.
• His 4 million social media followers across all platforms are a testament to his ability to drive awareness, reach audiences, and make people care about cognitive health in a way traditional campaigns never could.
• Gen Z and caregivers alike are engaging in conversations about cognitive health in ways they never did before.
• The stigma is breaking. People are talking. And that’s the goal.

“I never thought I’d have to do this,” Aspen admits. “But I’ll do whatever it takes to get people to care. If music is what gets them to listen, then I’ll keep making music.”

Silver House isn’t just an artist name. It’s a movement.

And the message is clear: The future of cognitive health won’t be ignored anymore.
