“David brought a vision to the band and we were able to give some feedback and make it personal to our story,” expressed Eric Hölljes (vocals, piano). “In this video, you’ll see artifacts from our lives, photos of family members, just a lot of personal items that are meaningful to us.”

“This song is about family and spirits and feeling the love of people that might actually not be here anymore and feeling their love around you as you continue to walk through life,” added Liz Hopkins (lead vocals, tambourine, auxiliary percussion).

Continued Ian Holljes (vocals, guitar), “The heart of life is good friends and family.”

Telling stories in four-part harmony with Hopkins and the Holljes brothers is sister Brittany Hölljes (lead vocals), accompanied by Mike McKee (drums) and Grant Emerson (bass). “A Long and Happy Life” is the title track from the Delta Rae’s EP, available now on The Valory Music Co. The Hölljes brothers penned the lead single, reflecting on their admiration for Southern literature and specific authors that have influenced their lives.
