A well-deserved title for a group who use music & lyrics to bring hope & healing to the world."

As 1.5 billion people in the world are affected by hearing loss; sign language can help them to continue enjoying music which can bring joy to life."

Permission to Dance is based on a pandemic-free and inclusive world in the near future. It is an upbeat track about spreading happiness through dance and music. The song recently debuted at the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100. Prior to that, their song Butter had retained the top spot on the international music chart for seven weeks.
