Today, Sarah Barrios teamed up with fellow rising singer/songwriter Rence to deliver a message of hope to the world!
The two just launched their brand new collaboration “Help,” which reminds us that there’s nothing wrong with asking for help.
Speaking of the song, Sarah says “This song is about reminding yourself that it’s okay not to be okay and it’s okay to ask for help. It’s about learning that sharing your struggles does not make you weak.”
Sarah Barrios is known for being vulnerable in her songs, and creating music that her listeners can relate to in some way. So, bringing Rence along for the song seemed like a no-brainer!
“The second I heard Rence’s verse on this song, I knew it was going to be a special one,” Sarah shares. “The vulnerability in his words, story and voice really brought the message to life, of two people reaching out and sharing their own struggles with one another.“
Rence adds, “This song feels so important to me because it works to fight the stigma that exists around not being okay, and not being acceptable to ask for “Help” when you need it. I am always amazed by artists that can effectively use their art and platform to enact change – and always try to find ways to do that with mine – so joining Sarah on the record felt like the perfect fit. I wrote my verse of this song – about my tendency to always try and seem strong, especially in my most broken moments – to give the world another example of how someone would have benefited from asking for help. The two of us come together on the second hook admitting that sometimes, we both just need a helping hand.”
