Travel has a way of creating space for discovery, changing how people experience moments, music and culture along the way.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Overhead Originals is a new original content project from Delta and YouTube Premium that brings a live performance into an unexpected place: a Delta Boeing 767.

By offering viewers a new way to experience music through the lens of the journey itself, Delta and YouTube are reimagining how culture and travel can create moments of connection at every step. The exclusive original content is now available to enjoy on Delta\u2019s YouTube channel<\/a> and will extend to Delta\u2019s in-flight entertainment this summer.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Three-time GRAMMY award-winning R&B star Leon Thomas<\/a> introduces the project with an intimate, live performance recorded on a Delta aircraft. For Thomas, whose music blends soul, reflection and storytelling, the setting was intentional. Travel has long shaped his creative process – offering space to slow down, take in new perspectives and create from a reflective headspace. That perspective carries through the performance, reflecting the role new environments play in shaping what we create.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A performance designed to travel<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n
\n

While the live performance was experienced by a small audience of SkyMiles Members and Delta frontline employees, it was created to travel far beyond the cabin. The performance is now available exclusively on YouTube<\/a> before it joins the award-winning content on Delta\u2019s in-flight entertainment this summer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cTravel puts people in a different headspace \u2014 one that\u2019s often more open, reflective and curious,\u201d said Sarah Downs, Managing Director of In-Flight Entertainment & Connectivity at Delta. \u201cBy bringing YouTube onboard and partnering to create experiences like Overhead Originals, we\u2019re meeting customers where they are in that moment and giving them new ways to connect with the content, artists, and creators they love while they travel.\u201d\u00a0
