The Orchid Room features John Hassall of The Libertines and Danish singer Annekei.
The debut track from The Orchid Room, Be The Light, has been released today on digital and streaming formats.
Written by Libertines bassist John Hassall, it stems from the remote living so many have had to endure during the past 18 months of pandemic restrictions, an existence which Hassall and Annekei experienced after their local SGI-Buddhist group (where the pair first met) in Denmark was forced online.
“The song is an encouragement to everyone I could only meet on the phone or computer screen,” he says.
“I wanted to remind them that we could overcome all the distance, emotional turmoil and problems that have been caused by Covid 19. As long as we can stick it out and support each other.”
