A Feel-Good Anthem Inspired by One of South Africa’s Most Beloved Community Initiatives
South African broadcaster and musician Martin Bester has released his uplifting new single, Angel, featuring acclaimed singer-songwriter Ross Learmonth. More than just a feel-good pop track, the song serves as a heartfelt tribute to the life-changing work of Jacaranda FM’s Good Morning Angels initiative.
Released on 5 June 2026, Angel celebrates the spirit of kindness, compassion and community that has become synonymous with Good Morning Angels over the past two decades.
A Long-Held Dream Comes to Life
For Martin Bester, creating a song inspired by Good Morning Angels has been a personal ambition for many years.
Co-written by Martin Bester, Ross Learmonth and Ewald Jansen van Rensburg, who also produced the track, Angel captures the emotional journey of accepting help during difficult times and recognising that everyone needs support at some point in their lives.
The upbeat pop anthem reflects the hope and humanity that listeners have come to associate with Good Morning Angels, reminding audiences that even in life’s darkest moments, there are people willing to step forward and make a difference.
Why Ross Learmonth Was the Perfect Collaborator
When it came time to bring the project to life, Ross Learmonth was the obvious choice.
A long-time supporter of Good Morning Angels and a friend of Jacaranda FM, Learmonth brought his songwriting expertise and passion for meaningful storytelling to the collaboration.
The partnership combines two respected voices in South African music, resulting in a track that feels both personal and universally relatable.
Music with a Purpose
Beyond its uplifting message, Angel carries a powerful charitable purpose.
Martin Bester has pledged to donate all of his songwriting royalties from the single to Jacaranda FM’s Good Morning Angels fund. The contribution will help the initiative continue supporting South Africans facing challenges related to healthcare, education, housing, mobility and disaster relief.
Since its inception, Good Morning Angels has raised millions of rand and transformed countless lives through acts of generosity and community-driven support.
A Celebration of Hope and Human Connection
At its core, Angel is a reminder of the extraordinary impact ordinary people can have when they come together to help others.
With its uplifting melody and heartfelt message, the song not only celebrates the legacy of Good Morning Angels but also encourages listeners to become part of that legacy through every stream, download and share.
Angel is now available across all major digital streaming platforms.
