But look at us now! It’s so lovely to watch back everything we put into the album. What’s your favourite episode from Stories From The Edge Of Creation? 🪽 #newmusic #behindthesong
Amazing to see the audience’s response to Who Believes In Angels? Stories From The Edge Of Creation last night and take to the stage with Brandi, Andrew and Bernie to share our stories of creating the album. Thank you to everyone who came down to support. I can’t wait for the whole world to see it when it goes live on my YouTube today! #newmusic #WhoBelievesInAngels
Little Richard is - musically, vocally and visually - one of our biggest influences. With Bernie’s lyrics, we wrote this song in his honour, and I couldn’t think of a better track than 'Little Richards Bible' to mark the release of Who Believes In Angels? 🪽🚀 #livemusic #newmusic #WhoBelievesInAngels
Or just enough! #newmusic #livemusic #behindthesong Episode 2. Little Richards Bible 🪽 Inspired by Little Richard - who’s the reason I play piano the way I do - I played some of my best piano in years on this track, in his honour. It really rocks and became a unifying point in making the album, bringing all of us together and shaping how we recorded the rest of it. Taken from Who Believes In Angels? Stories From The Edge Of Creation, the film series capturing thousands of hours of raw footage and ultimately documented the album’s entire creation. Now available to watch in full on YouTube.

Working with Brandi, Bernie and Andrew on this album was one of the greatest musical experiences of my life. It was initially challenging, but working through that process allowed us to emerge with something truly joyous and celebratory. We’ve been blown away by the response and love we’ve felt, and to see Who Believes In Angels? reach Number 1 in the UK is a true joy. We couldn’t be prouder of it and I’m so thrilled with the result but without the backing from you, the fans, it wouldn’t feel as good as it does in this very moment - thank you all so much!🪽 ❤️🚀 #newmusic #whobelievesinangels #number1album @Brandi Carlile
When you get the perfect storm of creative tension between Andrew, Brandi, Bernie, and an incredible band of musicians, something electric happens… and Who Believes In Angels? is the result. This album is raw, unexpected, and one of the most exciting projects I’ve ever been part of. I feel revitalized, Brandi is at her absolute best, and together we’ve created something entirely new. To all of you who have been part of this journey - thank you. Your love and support mean the world, and I can’t wait for you to hear this. Listen everywhere. ✨🎶 #WhoBelievesInAngels #NewMusic @Brandi Carlile
An autobiographical album, it tells the story of how Bernie and I met and chased the dream. It was the first album to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and stayed there for seven weeks. With Someone Saved My Life Tonight and the iconic Alan Aldridge artwork, it’s one of the albums I’m proudest of. 📸: Sam Emerson 1974 #OTD #OnThisDay #BehindTheSong

Little Richard was such an inspiration to us both, and this song is a tribute to his charisma! Thank you for leading the charge ❤️🎹 #newmusic #behindthesong #WhoBelievesInAngels?
Bernie Taupin truly gets me, and with “Who Believes In Angels?” he created three of the best lyrics he’s ever written. Which is your favourite from the album? #newmusic #behindthesong
