The artistic duo recently recorded the song 'One Voice', written by Ruth Moodyco-founder of the The Wailin' Jennys. Brian May stated on his website brianmay.com: "This track is intended as art for the pleasure of making art, something I am very proud of with the magnificent voice of Kerry Ellis and a crystal clear social message: 'You have a voice, a voice CAN make a difference'".. This song will be presented during this new tour together with the most significant songs from their respective repertoires, as well as those of other great artists of the past.
The Brian May & Kerry Ellis project was born after the two artists met at the auditions of We Will Rock You The Musical in London in which Kerry played the original role of Meat. Brian May produced his debut album 'Anthems' in 2010, followed by the Anthems Tour in 2011. The subsequent Born Free Tour was presented with a series of intimate, acoustic shows in atmospheric candlelit settings, raising awareness of the duo's work for the Born Free Foundation. From this latest tour May and Ellis recorded the live album 'Acoustic by Candlelight' released in 2013.
