The Invisible’s Dave Okumu writes Prince tribute for charity

Following the release of latest album ‘Patience’, The Invisible’s Dave Okumu has recorded a new tribute for Prince, titled ‘Oceans of Purple’.

Released today, all proceeds from streaming and sales go towards Nordoff Robbins, a charity specialising in music therapy for the vulnerable and isolated.

A video for the Jamie Woon-featuring track is streaming below, and the song is available to buy here.

“Prince saved my life,” says Dave. “He was, and remains, my favourite musician… In recent years, through the loss of my mother, I have learned that death can’t contain love. As I confront the grief of losing my hero, I rejoice in the fact that I will spend the rest of my years floating in an ocean of purple.”
