About Sing Out Strong: Remembered Voices

Sing Out Strong: Remembered Voices is a live, virtual concert, featuring ten new songs written with families who lost loved ones to the virus. Premiering on March 11, the performance marks the day two years ago that the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic. With the idea of creating a musical memorial to all the lives lost to COVID by focusing on a cross-section of specific stories, WSP located ten families willing to share their memories of their loved ones. The performance marks the fifth installment of White Snake’s popular community song initiative.

Watch "Music" from SOS: Incarcerated Voices, composed by Sarah Taylor Ellis with text by Sarah Allen.
