On Saturday, December 26th, 50+ artists and hundreds of thousands of viewers around the world came together for Georgia Comes Alive, a virtual music festival aimed at promoting voter participation in Georgia’s critical Senate runoff elections on January 5th, 2021.
One of the many acts to perform was the always-entertaining Andy Frasco & The U.N., who performed the inspiring “Better Day” as the band and viewers alike looked forward to a brighter future in 2021. From the scenic backyard of the Cocoon House in Malibu, CA, it looked like Frasco and company were already experiencing brighter days as they kicked off the track, which closes out the band’s 2020 album, Keep On Keepin’ On.
Though Andy Frasco is widely known for his chaotic onstage antics, this performance found a contemplative frontman as he tried to inspire hope when it’s needed most. Between picturesque drone shots of the California coast and the smooth saxophone phrasings of Ernie Chang, Frasco and company provided an unexpected yet welcome sigh of relief for audiences tuning in from across the country to help wind down the year.
