“I LOVE YOU, DAD” A Song For All Seasons Celebrates Fatherhood
Los Angeles CA (January 15, 2022) 7-year-old Kyra has released her first official music video, “I LOVE YOU, DAD”. It all started when Kyra’s Dad (Ernie) was casually playing the piano one day, Kyra asked him what he was playing and he responded, “I am just playing a rhythm”. She asked him if she can sing along and what should she sing. Ernie simply replied, “Sing anything you want, just sing it out loud.” – Kyra started singing and now we have “I Love You, Dad”. The song was released on Father’s Day 2021 and became available on Spotify, Amazon Music, and iTunes.
Soon after, preparations were made to shoot the music video in Los Angeles with Videographer Airic Lewis, Owner of Nirvana Studios Hollywood. Kyra was ready to make magic happen and let the world visually experience “I Love You, Dad”. She gives thanks to her supportive parents and family along with her vocal coach Ms. Monnette Forte and dance instructor Alex Collins.

But the excitement continues when Kyra received front-of-the-line audition passes for America’s Got Talent 2022 virtual auditions this month. She is busy preparing for this amazing opportunity and ready to show the judges why she is the right candidate for the show. And hopefully, show America more of what she has to offer. More than showcasing Kyra’s talent, it’s a family story of miracles and faith. Kyra sadly lost 2 of her older siblings before she was born. Kyra’s mother was diagnosed with Gliofibroma, a rare astrocytic tumor, composed of glial components ranging from benign to high-grade malignancy. Due to the massive brain tumor, Kyra’s mother underwent a craniotomy where a team of doctors in emergency surgery, removed the portion of her brain with cyst and tumor. Years after the procedure, during her mother’s pregnancy, they made her choose between her own life and the life of the unborn child. Kyra’s mother chose her.
