A youth dance song about getting caught in a tornado
The first project involved collaboration with the Carleton Community Centre, focusing on children aged 8-12. Working closely with mentor Laura Barron, the team conducted three workshops, delving into discussions on climate change and energy poverty, developing song concepts, and recording at Monopolized Recording Studio. The resulting upbeat track centers around a playful narrative of a person running out of gas and getting caught in a tornado.
A sad melancholy song about energy poverty
The second project, in collaboration with Interaction School of Performing Arts, targeted teens aged 14-15. The workshops fostered a collaborative approach, resulting in a reflective piece on energy poverty’s impact on one’s sense of home. The teens actively contributed to the songwriting, instrumental sections, and vocals during the recording session.
