New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Acclaimed Greek vocalist George Perris has released the stunning music video for his spellbinding cover of Billie Eilish's " My Future" amplifying the track's quietly triumphant mood with cascading Balkan percussion and gloriously soaring Middle Eastern strings. The single is featured on George's recently released third full-length English-language album No Armor, an exquisite glimpse into the songs that have shaped him into a global phenomenon and the most widely renowned Greek singer of his generation which ushers in a new chapter in George's life both personally and musically. The cover of " My Future" holds a special place in George's heart following the international news of his coming out.
"At the start of lockdown, I'd gone through several years of big changes in my life, so I threw myself into psychoanalysis to try to focus on what I needed and wanted," Perris says in disclosing the cover's origins. "As soon as I heard 'My Future' I knew I had to create my own version of it: it's a big part of the puzzle in terms of not just reflecting on the past but looking forward to the future and where I'm going next in my life."
This week, George Perris has become the newest member in the family of UNICEF Goodwill Ambassadors from around the world who defend children's rights in every corner of the planet; other Goodwill Ambassadors include Audrey Hepburn, David Beckham, Pink, Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom, and Nana Mouskouri.
