We would love to arrange an interview with you and singer-songwriter Piera Van de Wiel who has captured the attention and support from the United Nations who is using her music to raise social awareness of domestic violence through her single “Used,” with proceeds going to the United Nations Trust Fund to End Violence Against Women. Now, Piera is releasing her next single titled “Dear Mrs.” timed for Pride Month.
“Dear Mrs’ is an Electro Swing Pop song designed to celebrate Pride Month. It’s dangerous, exciting, and crosses boundaries into your ultimate fantasy. ‘Dear Mrs’ showcases the passion and power inside every woman, no matter her age.” We would love to share a private link to the unreleased music video and have you consider “Dear Mrs.” for an exclusive premiere feature
