(January 24, 2022) Dessy Di Lauro and Ric’key Pageot, the wife and husband duo that make up the band Parlor Social, have new music that combines a timeless and timely message with an uplifting mission.
The new music comes in the form of their latest single “She Believes.” The track delivers the message of female empowerment in Parlor Social’s trademark sound fusing classic New Orleans style swing with hip hop and contemporary R&B production techniques. The result is a jazzy, funky and banging anthem the celebrates self-confident and resilient women who are committed to fighting for what is right and just.
Then there is the mission. Di Lauro and Pageot have initiated what they call the #SheBelievesChallenge on social media. The couple is asking people to create a video featuring a dance routine to a 30 second snippet of the song. Give the video a title that speaks to the aspirations of young women and use #SheBelievesChallenge when posting to Facebook, Instagram or Tik Tok, and Parlor Social will donate $1 up to $500 to Girls Inc., a 501c3 organization that encourages girls to be strong, smart and bold through service and advocacy.
Here are the rules to the #SheBelievesChallenge: 1. Cue up “She Believes”, place an invisible crown and create a simple dance routine. 2. The video should be 30 seconds and filmed vertically. Check out “She Believes” here.
