During their time at When We Were Young Fest 2024, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus dedicated “Your Guardian Angel” to a special couple in the crowd.
According to a post from user Maikeru San on Facebook/Meta, they and their partner lost their son in 2023, and the song means something deeply special to them.
The post reads, “Last year we missed this festival because we lost our firstborn child Elliott. When we buried him we played the song ‘Your Guardian Angel’ by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.”
It continues, “We came this year in our son’s memory. We made a sign for them to dedicate it in his honor. They saw it and delivered and gave us a heartfelt performance.”
Finally, it reads, “After their final song the drummer came off stage and handed me the sticks from the show. We cannot thank them enough for this and also shout out to the Verizon staff at the stage who helped us get this done. Here is the video of them dedicating and performing the song for us.”
