Amid the Covid -‐19 pandemic, much of live music has collapsed. During such an unprecedented time, when musicians and fans alike are feeling more isolated and missing out on live music performances, we can unite and use music for good.
“When I first heard the original song “Angels” by Richard Smallwood, in January of last year, it touched me so deeply. I said to myself I must record this song. In March, Covid 19 came and I just knew I had to do something artistic and inspiring to give people hope worldwide, and this was the song. I am very happy with everyone’s brilliance and hard work in making this virtual video,” said AndreYAH.
“Angels” is sure to engage new audiences worldwide.
