About The Beloveds (feat. David Newman & Philippo Franchini):
The Beloveds is the debut release from a band by the same name comprised of recording artists David Newman and Philippo Franchini. The Beloveds’ music is a standout and groundbreaking release in the unique and burgeoning genre of positive or inspirational rock.
On The Beloveds’ debut album, David and Philippo have created a truly unique and captivating sound, infusing the music with elements of indie rock, singer-songwriter, world, blues, and folk, along with ancient healing Sanskrit mantras. The result is pure alchemy that enchants and delights.

It is simply gratifying, timeless music with a message of peace, love and hope that speaks directly to the heart at a time when it is perhaps needed most!
