Listen to ‘Brave’, featuring Laura Wright and The Royal Marines Corps of Drums
With just a week to go until our new album, ‘Remember’, is out and after such a fabulous response to ‘The Poppy Red’, we’re delighted to announce that you can also now listen to ‘Brave’ on Spotify!: https://open.spotify.com/track/5SWtt9a74fUsdIvNhPeIwk
As our album tells the story of women in the military both then and now, ‘Brave’ looks to commemorate the World War I anniversary through the eyes of women in the military community in 2018. Co-written by and featuring the fabulous soprano Laura Wright, the song was inspired by words from our network and is a celebration of the strength of our choir members every day – we are thrilled to have Laura’s support! The track is also accompanied by the fantastic The Bands of HM Royal Marines (Official) Corps of Drums who we are delighted to have on board.
We really hope you enjoy listening to it, and roll on next Friday when all 12 tracks will be released to the world!
