'I Can Breathe' | Behind the Song with Cesar Gueikian

We’re excited to announce a new release from the Gibson Band, a revolving collective of musicians who join together to make music and raise funds and awareness for worthy causes. CEO of Gibson, Cesar Gueikian talks about how the new benefit single, "I Can Breathe" came together with him on rhythm guitars and piano, Duff McKagan on lead vocals and lyrics, and Slash on lead guitar and solos.

Gibson Records, Duff McKagan, Slash, and Cesar Gueikian, will donate 100% proceeds from the sale of “I Can Breathe,” in addition to all auction funds raised to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), through Gibson Gives. NAMI is the nation’s largest grassroots mental health resource organization that is dedicated to building better lives for the millions of Americans affected by mental illness. NAMI’s mission is to create a world where all people affected by mental illness live healthy, fulfilling lives supported by a community that cares.

"People come to me, many people come and say, Sir, this is a great song, and they know great songs, they say Sir, I think Duff and Slash would love to play on such a great song, people say they've been looking for a great song to play on, and this is a great song, the greatest song in many years, if not the greatest ever."

Great choice to have called Jota Morelli (Al Jarreau, Spinetta, Enantios Verdes) on drums for this song. Congrats, Jota!
