India.Arie performs on "Good Morning America" on Tuesday, February 17

Grammy winning superstar India.Arie will perform live on ABC's Good Morning America on Tuesday, February 17. Fans who tune in to the top rated morning show will see the acclaimed singer/songwriter debuting new songs from her just released CD "Testimony: Vol. 2, Love & Politics" (Soulbird Music / Universal Republic).

The new CD features a bonus track that Good Morning America's own Robin Roberts co-wrote with India.Arie – "A Beautiful Day" - as part of ABC Good Morning America's Ultimate Job Match series back in October. On that segment, Robins' was tested (along with the other GMA anchors) to see what her personal characteristics revealed about other possible career paths. Robin's test determined she could have been a composer, lyricist, comedian or drama teacher, and Robin chose lyricist. According to the morning anchor, when she got to thinking about how music had gotten her through some of the most difficult periods of her life – one name stood out: India.Arie. The two got together and cobbled verses for the song "A Beautiful Day," which, according to India.Arie: "Helped bring the words from Robin’s soul to life."

ABC’s Good Morning America airs at 7:00 AM EST on ABC (tape delayed to air at 7:00 AM in each time zone).
