Olivia Newton-John, Beth Nielsen Chapman & Amy Sky Create LIV ON - A New Album to Aid & Comfort Those Experiencing Grief & Loss While Using the Power of Music To Heal
International superstar and multiple Grammy Award-winner Olivia Newton-John, Grammy nominee Beth Nielsen Chapman and SOCAN Award-winner Amy Sky are lending their vocal and songwriting talents to create LIV ON, a collaborative, newly recorded eleven-song collection intended for those who wish to transcend loss while walking a journey toward new-found meaning and hope.
This inspiring new project grew out of the three artists' personal experiences with loss and illness, which they all survived to LIV ON and celebrate each day with a depth of gratitude. This labor of love stemmed from the trio sharing their stories together and expressing their deepest feelings from the most difficult to the most celebratory. It's the hope that this music can uplift hearts burdened by grief while at the same time bring comfort to the listener.
As a group, it's our intention with this album to create songs with a message of compassion and hope, said Newton-John. They are for anyone facing a time of challenge in their life, whether it is grieving a loss - or on the journey to health and recovery.
LIV ON -- means to thrive, to have hope and to remember.
The message is clear in the lyrics of the album's title song:
Live on, Live on
Brighter skies will come again
Cry the tears you cry
And then live on, live on
Love is all we leave when we are gone...Live on
LIV ON harnesses the unique talents of these three internationally-recognized artists - and showcases the transforming power of music - to heal and shed light on the fact that it's OK to grieve -- and that the process is different for everyone. The message of LIV ON is clear and affirming: the reason we grieve is because we love, and therein lies the strength for healing.
