Durrance is petitioning for a national Turn It Off Day. "…I thought 'how wonderful would it be, just to turn everything off—all those things that are a distraction or an interruption from valuable, quality time that could be spent with those you love?'" said Durrance."We've gotten so far away from being a social community, if we all took the time to physically communicate and spend time with one another, with heart, care and concentration, and without interruption, for just one day, think of what this would mean for not only the health and growth of our families, but the entire country," Durrance said of Turn It Off Day."Turn It Off," is Durrance's second single from his current CD, Angels Fly Away.
