Singer-Songwriter Sarantos Opens Up About His Personal Battle With COVID-Related Chronic Pain On Latest Single

On his 2021 album release, "Covid Survivor," Chicago-based singer-songwriter Sarantos revealed his diagnosis and struggle with the Coronavirus.

The album pulled back the veil with iTunes chart-topping singles, "I Never Catch the Train," "911 & The Fallen," "I Just Don't Care," and more. Now, the prolific artist is opening up about his personal battle with chronic back pain, following his COVID ordeal. His new single, "Looking Up at the World" is the autobiographical tale of his fight to regain his health.

"This sad rock song was inspired by my chronic struggle with thoracic back pain, which I got after a bout with coronavirus way before the vaccine was available," He reveals how bad it got. "It was bad, even requiring surgery. I used the brace, did rehab, worked out, stopped working out and took it easy - I did everything I could and still had nonstop debilitating pain. It was only better when I laid down flat. All I could do was look up at the world as life passed me by..."

"Looking Up at the World" is out now.
