If you have a home to go to, a door that’s always open for you

Knowing things will always be the same
And if you find that you’ve nowhere to go
All that you need is right here for you
Saskia Griffiths-Moore has spent years on the acoustic music circuit and is well known in the London folk scene. Deciding to leave her job as a therapist in London’s Harley street she pursued a career in music, moving to Bristol and then back to London. She has received four grants from Arts Council England and has recently returned from successful tours of Germany and the USA.
‘For You’ was recorded and crowdfunded (it raised over £8k) with a 40 person choir of fans in studio 2 in Abbey Road Studios, in partnership with the London charity Music For Mental Wealth.
It can be a particularly difficult time of year for those who are struggling and ‘For You’ resonates musically and lyrically and with the uplifting feeling you get when you listen to it. It has healing qualities and the feeling of coming together and supporting each other from the choir’s beautiful harmonies. The visuals reflect this with people of all ages singing and really enjoying every moment.
“’For You’ is a soaring feel-good ballad with the message that everything we need for life, we already possess on the inside. The main message of this heartwarming song is that everything one needs in life is on the inside”. – Saskia Griffiths-Moore
