Papa Roach scored a Top 10 hit with their heartfelt and inspiring song, “Leave A Light On.” The song shines a spotlight on suicide prevention and mental health awareness, and proceeds from the track directed toward the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention have tallied in at more than $250K.
The band has now teamed with eight-time Grammy winner and country superstar Carrie Underwood for a new, duet recording of the track. The video for the song can be seen below.
“We were humbled that Carrie was open to our mission, and hearing the power of Carrie’s voice in that recording session we were blown away,” Papa Roach frontman Jacoby Shaddix said. “Not only is her vocal ability unequaled, but the impact of her voice brings a new meaning to our cause and will help people all over the globe. It’s an honor to have a ‘rock star’ bring life to this track with us.”
Underwood added: “I’m such a huge fan of Jacoby and Papa Roach and was honored to be invited to record ‘Leave A Light On’ with them,” says Underwood. “It’s a beautiful song and the message behind it and the band’s mission to shine a light on suicide prevention and mental health awareness has never been more important.”
“We want to thank Carrie Underwood for joining with Papa Roach to record this new, inspiring duet version, which will reach even more fans and connect them to AFSP’s Talk Away The Dark campaign,” said AFSP CEO Bob Gebbia. “We are also incredibly grateful to PAPA ROACH and Carrie Underwood for their commitment to providing those struggling with their mental health information and resources that can help.”
