“We are living through a difficult time, but I’m given hope when I see how people around the world are responding with music.
People are gathering for concerts… online and singing from their balconies.
Music brings us together even when we are apart, and I look forward to the day that I play for you again in person.
In the meantime, keep playing, keep innovating and keep one another in your hearts.”

Kenny Rogers, who sadly passed away last month, delivers a final farewell in the emotional track “Goodbye,” a newly-rediscovered track which was written by icon Lionel Richie.
The ballad was one of the last songs Rogers recorded during a brief tenure with Capitol Records — and before now was only available on a greatest-hits collection, Kenny Rogers: The First 50 Years.
Following his death, executives at the label found the track and decided to send it to country radio making it a fitting tribute to a true country legend.
The Country Music Hall of Fame member who sold over 100 million records topped the charts with hits such as “Lady” which was also penned by Lionel Richie.
