The St Elmo’s Fire hitmaker has recorded NHS Never Surrender, a soaring piano led ballad which pays tribute to the country’s doctors and nurses battling the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Sykehouse-based musician released the song through his Facebook page and described the track as “a tribute to the brave men and women of our NHS and all frontline workers who fight a daily battle against this deadly virus, so we may live.”

The song, which features the words of Winston Churchill’s famous ‘we will never surrender’ wartime speech, has a video featuring images associated with the pandemic, including Captain Tom Moore, deserted streets, medics and rainbows.

Fans can listen to the track at John’s Facebook page HERE where you can also make a donation to NHS Charities Together.
