Amber Riley is putting her incredible vocals to work in a new cover of Donna Summer‘s classic song “MacArthur Park” and JustJared.com has the exclusive premiere of the music video! The 38-year-old former Glee actress teamed up with virtuoso pianist and rising pop artist Micah McLaurin for the new single. “I love the song and I thought it would be a fun collaboration moving into the summer,” Amber said in a statement. “Not to mention, Micah’s arrangement is absolutely beautiful, adding a new flare to what is already a classic. I couldn’t say no!” “‘MacArthur Park’ is an iconic disco classic. When I heard it for the first time, I fell in love with it,” Micah added. “It’s so musical and complex, yet fabulous and fun. It’s the perfect combination of musical sophistication and accessibility without compromising on either. It piqued my curiosity into disco and pop music, and like other pieces I love, I just HAD to play it somehow. So, I started making the instrumental arrangement.” Head inside to watch the video… Amber and Micah will perform the song live for the first time at Chicago Pride on June 23!
