August - Artist Of The Month - Steve Andrews
“A Real Love and Communication” is a very popular song by Steve Andrews.
It is a song for peace and a live version was once part of the “Peace Day” celebrations in a school in Garachico in Tenerife when Steve lived on the island.
It was also Steve’s contribution to last year’s international online concert for Wake Up, Rise Up, Live 4 Peace.
The recorded version was produced by Jayce Lewis at Northstone Studios in Bridgend, and the artwork is by Rew Starr.
The chorus goes: “We all need a real love and communication, yes, we do.”
Audiences often join in singing this.
The music video, as a live version for the song, was filmed by Pedro Augusto Almeida at the Auditorio Bocage in Setubal.
