  • Even if the World Stops

    Even if the World Stops

    Evie Clair’s 3rd song in her summer of collaborations is with some fantastic kids from One Voice Children’s Choir (Grant, Lulu, Eva and Kainoa) who have a new smaller group called Kids America. This collab also included her good friend Benson Baril! These are some of the talented people behind the scenes:

    Lead Producer: Big Time Nate
    Songwriters: Big Time Nate, Shaun Barrowes, Evie Clair and Benson Baril
    Videography: Dan LaPray

    This project brings attention to the kids who are alone because of the global pandemic with the world still mostly closed. It shows that we need each other and we need to find a new sense of community that is supportive and uplifting. We need to help each other. We need to try harder to understand each other. We need to find peace. We need to find new ways to show people we love them. We need to get past our differences and help people feel hope and that life is worth living and fighting for.

    Evie took on this project because she has felt that despair in the past and sees too many kids feeling it now. She has witnessed an epidemic of teens in her friend groups and community who have taken their own lives during this time of quarantine and she wants to help spread a message of hope and that we all have a purpose and a responsibility to help each other when we fall into dark places.

    ► “Even If The World Stops” Lyrics:

    Cause we all need someone who understands us

    To hold you closer when darkness pulls us

    So even if the world stops well have someone around

    Holding the rope its begun to fray

    I’m Falling now

    Calling for help I’m a mile away there’s no way out

    All I need is someone to hear me It’s a game I don’t wanna play

    Cause we all need someone to understand us

    To hold you closer when darkness pulls us

    So even if the world stops we’ll have someone around

    Can you help me Can you help me out (x3)

    Even if the world stops Looking for signs it will be okay

    I’m screaming out

    The light at the end of the road won’t stay.

    In darkness now

    Cause all I need is someone to find me

    To hold my hand when I’m feeling lost

    Cause we all need someone to understand us

    To hold you closer when darkness pulls us

    So even if the world stops we’ll have someone around

    Can you help me

    Can you help me out (x3)

    Can you help me

    Can you help me out (x3)

    Even if the world stops

  • Wedding Weekend

    Wedding Weekend

    Evie traveled to Utah on April 26th to sing for the wedding reception of Elder Gressman, a missionary who served near her home last year. For the event, she worked with the mega talented director of the One Voice Children’s Choir, Masa Fukuda and top Utah cellist, Garrett Rosza.

    They covered a beautiful song by Ruelle called “I Get to Love You” that was requested by the bride. They also covered “I Wanna Dance With Somebody,” “Can’t Help Falling in Love” and some ‘on the spot’ requests. This is live, raw video footage filmed by A.J. Moss. Evie feels so grateful to be able to collaborate with such incredible musicians.

    Evie Clair loves visiting Utah because she has lots of beloved aunts, uncles and cousins there. On this trip she also got to spend some time with her best friend, Clancy Thomas and his mom, who came to see her perform. She was happy to get to see them since Clancy only has a few months until he leaves on his mission. Evie belongs to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where young people as young as 18 serve and teach away from home for up to 2 years. Just like Elder Gressman who served his mission in Evie’s town of Florence, Arizona, her friend Clancy will leave home in August to serve the people in Vina Del Mar, Chile.

    Clancy has even helped Evie with lyrics for songs on her upcoming “Okay Day” Album that will be released June!
