With over one billion streams, Gigi Perez’s “Sailor Song” has become an anthem. Written after being dropped by her record label, it was the break she’d been hoping for. Perez joins us to talk about her debut album, At The Beach, In Every Life, which chronicles her grief and healing after the death of her sister.
