Rafael Witt - Don't Cry (Wanderer Sessions)

It's hard to sing while crying... We recorded this in only one take. I told everyone the story behind the song beforehand. It always makes me emotional. I wrote this song to stop crying, to try and lift myself up and trust the process. It was such a sweet moment to me, to be surrounded by these amazing musicians, playing a song I wrote and seeing them connect and contribute with their talent in such a pure and kind way. I hope you can watch this and feel better, believe in yourself, dry your tears and keep following your path.

The Wanderer Sessions are live videos recorded in São Francisco Xavier, a small city in the state of São Paulo, Brasil. We rented a farm house for 5 days, where we lived, shared meals together and played a lot of music... It was such a blessing... I love my job

Every Thursday I'll post a new video. We recorded "old" songs, covers and new songs from my debut album. Enjoy :D

Cheers from Brasil
