Check out our interview with multi-faceted actor, model and musician London Cheshire who just released his first single, a cover of Justin Bieber’s hit “Christmas Eve” during the holidays. London’s acting career includes CBS’ “Young Sheldon,” FOX’s “9-1-1,” and THE TERROR OF HALLOW’S EVE.
Having a strong passion for RnB and being hands on with the entire music process, London goes all in on the rhythmic pop slow jam. London had always been a fan of Bieber, and one day when he was heading into the studio and listening to music, Bieber’s “Christmas Eve” came on his music station and he immediately vibed with the song and knew he wanted to cover the track. Following the release of “Christmas Eve,” London will next be releasing original songs that he wrote and produced for early 2021.
