“Fire” by The Daguerreotypes

Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions is an initiative where we invite Baha’is and their friends from around the world to come into a studio and share the Baha’i Writings put to music.

In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we’re in Washington DC, USA with The Daguerreotypes singing “Fire” from the Writings of Baha’u’llah.

This song was filmed and recorded in Washington DC, USA, October 2018.
