At the end of Week 8 of leading socially distanced lives, on this rain-drenched-and-too-tired Friday, Kremena and I offer you a song and a handful of portraits.
“We Will Survive” is a promise offered to us all.
“We Will Survive” insists we are going to make it.
“We Will Survive” is part of 10 in 20: A Lexington Recording Project, written and performed by members of Lexington’s one and only March Madness Marching Band .*
The portraits of March Madness Marching Band members span the epidemic. They are all surviving.
