Iris Gold - Smile (Official Video)
British-Danish artist Iris Gold performed at Peace One Day's historic live stream broadcast on September 21st, 2025, joining an all-star lineup including Dave Stewart from Eurythmics, Daryl Hall, Basement Jaxx, Emeli Sandé, and speakers including Jude Law.
The World's Largest Global Call for Peace will stream live to millions across the globe, featuring world-class musical performances and powerful speeches from global leaders, peacebuilders, and changemakers. The urgent message resonates particularly strongly as 2025 sees more wars raging than at any time since the Second World War.
Iris Gold's participation comes as she continues to spread her global smile revolution with recent single "Smile," a psychedelic soul-pop anthem that transforms personal struggle into a celebration of human resilience. The track's accompanying music video features smiles from around the world — Jamaica, UK, Denmark, USA, Zimbabwe — creating a collective act of defiance against adversity."If smiles were worth gold, some of the poorest people would be the richest," says Iris. "A smile is universal. It knows no borders." The sentiment aligns perfectly with Peace One Day's mission to unite voices from every corner of the planet in the pursuit of peace.
The British-Danish singer-songwriter of Indian-Jamaican heritage brings her unique blend of hip-hop, psychedelic pop, and 90s alternative to the Peace Day broadcast. Her critically acclaimed work includes albums 'Planet Cool' (4 stars, The Guardian) and 'Woman' with Dave Stewart, with whom she'll share the Peace One Day stage.
Peace One Day founder Jeremy Gilley emphasised the broadcast's vital importance: "Our mission is clear — to raise awareness and manifest action on Peace Day. This is the day where more people think about peace than any other day of the year."
