Watch gifted musician's live performance of 'Angels all around' off his "For You" album
Cobhams Asuquo shares video clip for his live performance of song 'Angels all around' off his debut album "For You".
The song rendered was a part of Cobhams' album kick off tour live concert performance which was held at the Pistis Conference Center, Lekki on Sunday March 26, 2017.
And this was a follow-up to the release of the producer and singer's critically acclaimed debut album released in March last which recorded a sold-out album launch concert.
Speaking about the song, Cobhams says"I believe that in life, you're nothing without good people...And so for me an angel isn't always a winged creature...angels sometimes are good people who just help you move forward. They’ve been placed around you to just be a blessing in your life."
The visual of Asuquo's performance backed by lush ballad-esque piano arrangements and soaring vocal harmonies was shot and directed by documentary filmmaker Joel ‘Kachi Benson.
The ‘Angels All Around’ live video is the first of many visual collaborations between Benson and Cobhams Asuquo, which will be released through the period of Asuquo’s "For You" nationwide tour.
Alongside his work with Cobhams Asuquo, Joel Benson has also collaborated with the likes of Kelechi Amadi Obi, TY Bello, George Osodi, ID Cabasa, and Kenny Ogungbe, among others.
