Fairwell Angelina can add to their resume that the official music video for their single “Ghosts” just wrapped up a 12-week run in the Top 3 of CMT’s 12-Pack Countdown. That’s quite an accomplishment for the band with a fairly awesome name.
Additionally, the girls are excited to be chosen for the highly selective American Music Abroad tour, joining 17 other U.S. bands to represent the diversity of American Music. This two week run, organized by the Association of American Voices, recognizes not only their immense musical talent but also Farewell Angelina’s dedication and passion for outreach and education. The news of this tour, comes as the band embarks on an international tour in Switzerland and Norway followed by Spain later this summer.
“Some of the pressure is taken off by being able to share the joys and the difficulties together. But, one of our favorite things is to be standing on stage together and watching one of us out front in the spotlight, I get chills just talking about it right now. That’s what so special and unique about this,” said Farewell Angelina’s Lisa Torres in the podcast episode.
“AMA fosters cross-cultural connections while showcasing America’s rich and diverse musical traditions to a global audience. During their tours, bands will collaborate with local musicians, hold workshops and classes, and perform at community events.” –Newswire.com
