DOS DIVAS Returns With DOS DIVAS: UNPLUGGED, A Virtual Concert To Benefit The WHO Covid-19 Solidarity Response Fund  Image

Sarah Anne Fernandez and Lauren Baez, the ladies behind Dos Divas, have yet again joined forces and return to the stage - this time virtually in a concert to benefit the WHO Covid-19 Solidarity Response Fund. While the first Dos Divas concert seamlessly blended songs of Golden Age of Musical Theatre and pop hits of the 21st Century, Dos Divas: Unplugged will instead feature acoustic versions of popular songs made famous by Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, Lady Gaga, Christina Aguilera, and more.

The divas will be joined by Tiger Darrow on Cello and LOVE I.E.D on Guitar, as well as Fernandez herself on Piano. The concert will stream live on YouTube on Friday, December 18th at 8 PM EST. Donations to the WHO Covid-19 Solidarity Response Fund can be made once the link goes live, and will continue throughout the evening.
