Artist/Band: ERIC ALEXANDRAKIS  

Title: One More Angel [A Tribute to Raul Malo]  

Style: Americana, Folk Rock  

Year: 2026

Eric Alexandrakis releases "One More Angel" as a personal tribute to Raul Malo that celebrates life after shared cancer battles.

Music features Alexandrakis on multiple instruments with added violin, viola, mandolin, accordion, bass, drums, and harp that create rich layers. The mix by Paul David Hager keeps everything clear and balanced so the track moves with joyful energy rather than sadness. Production turns the three-chord structure into a bright full-band sound that honors the original while adding fresh depth and warmth throughout.

Eric's vocals deliver the lines with open sincerity and steady strength that match the tribute’s purpose. Lyrics address mortality and loss yet shift toward gratitude and the need to share care while time remains, turning the song into a direct celebration of a voice that brought lasting joy.

This release stands as a heartfelt and well-crafted tribute that gives back through music and charity support. A great cover !!!
