Eric Clapton And Van Morrison Team Up For New Song ‘Stand and Deliver’

Van Morrison and Eric Clapton will be releasing a new “anti-lockdown” song to support Morrison’s “Save Live Music” campaign. The track, titled “Stand and Deliver,” was written by Clapton. Morrison also previously released three “anti-lockdown” songs earlier this fall, including “Born to Be Free,” “As I Walked Out,” and “No More Lockdown.” Proceeds from the new single, set to drop on December 4, will go to Morrison’s Lockdown Financial Hardship Fund to benefit musicians.
