Having worked as a professional musician for his entire adult life, Valparaiso resident Chad Clifford was looking forward to a nearly sold-out 2020 season with gigs around the country and a tour overseas that would have taken the Beatle's fan to Liverpool, England.
But then the COVID-19 pandemic struck a year ago and like other musicians, Clifford found himself unable to perform in public due to health restrictions.Â
"Initially I was bummed and then after losing a musical hero of mine and having a lifelong friend nearly pass away I reevaluated what was important and put it in perspective," he said.
