STAGE TUBE: Sir Ari Releases 'Sparkle' Single, Featuring Sarah Dash

Sir Ari Gold has released his newest single, the second from his new CD "Between The Spirit and the Flesh" which just dropped last week. This is SPARKLE featuring the legendary Sarah Dash. Ari is headlining the first ever Lower East Side Gay Festival in NYC on Saturday, June 4th kicking off Gay Pride Month.

This self-empowerment anthem is a rallying cry against all bullies, but most importantly the bully from within. Directed by visual artist and HIV/AIDS activist Duane Cramer, the songs reminds us all that "when its cold/you better bring your weather with you/Cause when your down/Bring your inner-diva around." Featuring guest vocals by Sarah Dash, who is best known from the original Labelle with Patti LaBelle and Nona Hendrix. The video also includes cameos by underground NYC superstars, LadyFag, Stephan Keating, Mila Jam, Laverne Cox (from VH-1's Transform Me) and even a cameo from Ari's Mom. As the mainstream catches up to what this pioneering recording and performing artist has known all along, "Sparkle" continues Sir Ari's unwavering commitment to LGBT rights and equality.
