Riley Clemmons Teams Up With Brett Young For Duet 'Godsend'
Artist on the rise Riley Clemmons has teamed up with multi-platinum selling artist Brett Young for a very special duet version of 'Godsend.' With sweeping vocals imbued with emotion the introspective song contemplates the idea that everything happens for a reason and every negative thing was an opportunity for growth. The addition of Brett’s vocals weaving with Riley’s provides a fresh perspective that while life may seem isolating, there are others going through similar struggles.
“Brett has always been one of my favorite musical storytellers,” shares Riley. “It’s a true honor to have his voice and unique perspective be a part of telling the story of ‘Godsend’ on this new version.” On working with Riley, Brett says “The first time I heard this song it really moved me and I was honored when I was asked to be part of it. I’m a big fan of Riley and excited to see what else she does next.”
