The single — which features Artyom Manukyan’s haunting cellos — drops everywhere August 22.
Sebu will perform an orchestral rendition of the song at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles on September 12 as part of Echoes of Our Ancestors. The concert is a musical journey through Armenian history, an eclectic program featuring System of a Down frontman Serj Tankian, jazz prodigy Tigran Hamasyan and many more, with a special tribute to Charles Aznavour.
