Tyler Farr’s latest song serves as an anthem to domestic violence survivors, and it’s eliciting powerful stories from women who have overcome abusive relationships.
Farr released “Cover Girl” during Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and since he debuted the song, fans reached out to share their stories of survival. Voicemails inspired Farr to premiere a new music video on Thursday (October 28) to include their personal accounts. He previously shared in a tweet that he’s “been listening to the voicemails you’ve been leaving…I have no words. Thank you for sharing your stories! Give me a call and let me know how the song has helped you - +1 615-237-8369.”
After hearing their stories, Farr said in a statement:
“When I wrote ‘Cover Girl,’ I was hoping it would give someone the courage to get out of a hard situation. Seeing and hearing all the stories has had a big impact on me and I’m hoping we can help even more people through your strength. Watch the new version of the ‘Cover Girl’ video, listen to these amazing women tell their stories, and stay strong.”
Hearing your reactions to #CoverGirl has been a humbling experience. The strength many have shown to get out of horrible situations is amazing. Thank you for sharing your "Cover Girl" stories. So grateful this song could help in any way. https://t.co/CkqHzzWajU
