In this week's episode, Rosalyn is joined by Tamara Lindeman of The Weather Station. Tamara reflects on how climate grief has shaped her music, a theme that emerged with her previous album Ignorance. She discusses her latest record, Humanhood, which explores themes of personal disconnection and healing, while continuing to resonate with the emotional weight of climate grief and broader political tensions. Tamara also shares her perspective on the current political climate and its impact on touring, speaking candidly about the emotional burden of climate change—particularly on younger generations—and offering thoughtful insights into how artists can balance their roles as advocates. Overall, it's a powerful and timely conversation about art's role in expressing complex emotions, creating connection, and sparking action in the face of an uncertain future.Tamara's recommendations for climate organizations, thinkers and speakers include: 350.org, Environmental Defence, Nature Conservancy Canada, Music Declares Emergency, Bill McKibben and Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson.Buy, download or listen to The Weather Station's latest record, Humanhood.Find The Weather Station online:Website & Upcoming ShowsInstagramFacebookAbout The Weather StationThe Weather Station — the project of Toronto based songwriter Tamara Lindeman — returns with new album Humanhood on January 17th via Fat Possum Records.  The last few years have seen The Weather Station release two albums: the career defining Ignorance (2021) and its ethereal, mostly live recording companion piece, How Is It That I Should Look At The Stars (2022). In that time, The Weather Station have gone on to headline tours across North America and Europe, play major festivals, and perform on the televised Austin City Limits as well as Jimmy Kimmel Live. Ignorance was named Best New Music (Pitchfork), and landed in year-end Top 10 lists from The New Yorker (#1), Spin, New York Times, Uncut, Pitchfork, The Guardian, and many others.  Called "a heartbroken masterpiece" in The Guardian, the record was a complex evocation of climate grief that struck a chord worldwide. As a writer, Lindeman is known for her detail. “Her writing can feel … like the collected epiphanies from a lifetime of observing” (Pitchfork).  Over the course of six albums, her music has moved from home recorded, mostly acoustic folk to the “ornate act of world building” (New Yorker) that was Ignorance.  The throughline, though, is a focus on ideas; her lyrics walk the line between the personal and the conceptual, forever tying small moments to larger metaphysical quandaries.  Nominated for three Juno Awards, a Socan Songwriting Award, and shortlisted for the Polaris Prize, her albums have made a mark both critically and conceptually.______________If you're interested in submitting questions for our upcoming episodes, be sure to follow Folk Canada on Instagram where we will be posting our upcoming guests.Tune in to the latest episodes of the Refolkus Podcast, featuring the latest music releases from Folk Canada members as well as some of our special guests, now broadcasting on CKCU FM 93.1 in Ottawa, CKUW 95.9 FM in Winnipeg and CFBX 92.5 FM in Kamloops.Presented by Folk CanadaHosted by Rosalyn DennettProduced by Kayla Nezon and Rosalyn DennettMixed by Jordan Moore of The Pod CabinTheme music “Amsterdam” by King CardiacArtwork by Jaymie Karn

In Canada and many other parts of the world, we've relied on policymakers and scientists to be the ones communicating around climate, and they failed because they've only appealed to people's heads and haven't appealed to their hearts and souls. I think the big conversation coming out of COP 28 - and that you but I'm sure people at SCALE and others, we've known this for a long time, but it's kind of being recognized now - is that we need culture at the table. We need art and artists. We need to be connecting to all parts of people and not just showing numbers because that hasn't worked, and it's not working. And so I actually feel hopeful that art and culture being at the table will help with that whole overhaul and systems level transformation.Note: I'm using Whisper Transcribe, an artificial intelligence podcasting tool, for the first time with this episode. It helped me generate quotes, create chapters (see below), generate transcriptions (see Transcripts section), produce social media postings (notice the new tone and hashtags) and write up the episode notes (notice more fluid language), however I'm a little skeptical about AI's ability to get it all right (verification required) but it's pretty good and saves me time and delivers a better product. However I will continue to write and record my very human introduction at the top of each episode like this… Sometimes you just have to be in the right place at the right time. I had just completed my conversation with Tanya Kalmanovitch (see e189 tanya kalmanovitch - mobilizing the power of the arts) at No. 9 gardens near Kingston, Ontario (see e68  for more on no. 9 gardens) when I sat down at a picnic table with a group of arts and climate activists at a meeting of the Centre for Sustainable Practices the Art (CSPA) and right in front of me was Kim Fry. The same Kim Fry who co-founded and runs Music Declares Emergency Canada and is a hero of mine. I know Kim by reputation, but we had not yet met in person, so, on the spot, I asked Kim to record a conscient conversation with me about her life's work in music and environmental awareness. Kim now lives by the Atlantic ocean which is in Kjipuktuk, Mi'kma'ki territory, also known as Halifax, Nova Scotia. Before her recent move Eastward, she lived in Tkaronto for 27 years where she was an elementary school teacher, union activist, climate justice activist, environmental campaigner, storyteller and music manager. With the family move to K'jipuktuk, Kim decided to return to the world of environmental activism and music where she organized, among other things, the first ever Canadian Music Climate Summit. You'll hear that Kim talk about the power of music in the climate emergency :We need systems change, and so we need the whole way that the music industry operates to really rethink itself and sometimes some people might say that's greenwashing, because we're still talking about these big, huge multinational corporations when it comes to the music industry but I think there are folks who navigate that space and do it incredibly well. You'll also hear about Kim's efforts to highlight the importance of creating safe spaces for emotional engagement through music and community such as the sustainability committee at the Juno Awards, which is dedicated to reducing the industry's environmental footprint by promoting eco-friendly practices like public transit and plant-based catering.A particularly inspiring anecdote for me was about Kim's daughter Brighid Fry known under her artist name Housewife former Moscow Apartment) Bridghid ensured that a climate clause was included in her record deal. This type of action exemplifies the shift from incremental changes to systemic reform, advocating for the integration of culture and art into climate conversations and the shift from appealing from one's heads to one's hearts and souls.Oh, and when she has free time, Kim is working on a novel about the climate emergency. I look forward to that and I think you'll enjoy our unscheduled but long overdue conversation. Kim recommended the following publications and events:Birchbark House series by Louise ErdrichHadestown by Anais Mitchell : a musical about climate changeNeil Young's Love Earth tourNote: I have inserted 5 seconds of silence here and there during our conversation as interludes.*Episode Chapters (AI generated)IntroductionIn this section, Kim Fry introduces herself and shares her background as a climate activist, highlighting her journey from organizing student walkouts in the early '90s to her current work in music and climate activism.The Role of Music in Climate ActivismKim discusses the significant role that music and the arts play in climate activism, emphasizing how they can unite people and inspire political change through emotional connection.Launching Music Declares EmergencyThe conversation shifts to the founding of the Canadian chapter of Music Declares Emergency, detailing the collaborative efforts that led to its creation and the impact of the climate strikes in 2019.Challenges for Musicians in the Climate CrisisKim addresses the reluctance of musicians to engage in climate discussions due to the carbon-intensive nature of touring, and the need for systemic change within the music industry.Navigating Grief and Hope Through MusicThis chapter explores how music can help individuals process grief and despair related to the climate crisis, while also fostering a sense of hope and community.The Power of Collective SingingKim shares her personal experiences with singing and its transformative power, highlighting how collective music-making can ground individuals and strengthen community bonds.Engaging the Next GenerationThe discussion turns to the political engagement of Gen Z and the need for hopeful narratives that inspire action rather than despair, emphasizing the importance of storytelling in climate discourse.Creating Space for Connection and GratitudeKim emphasizes the importance of cultivating gratitude and deep connections to nature as foundational elements for addressing climate challenges and fostering resilience.Innovative Initiatives at the JunosThe conversation highlights the successful sustainability initiatives implemented at the Junos, showcasing how the music industry can take concrete steps towards climate action.The Need for Systemic ChangeKim discusses the necessity of systemic change in addressing the climate crisis, advocating for a collaborative approach that integrates art and culture into climate solutions.Youth Empowerment and Climate ActionThe chapter concludes with a reflection on the empowerment of youth in climate activism, showcasing how the next generation is driving important conversations around sustainability and systemic change. *END NOTES FOR ALL EPISODESI've been producing the conscient podcast as a learning and unlearning journey since May 2020 on un-ceded Anishinaabe Algonquin territory (Ottawa).

It's festival season! But are festivals any good for the environment? This week Chanté chats to Lewis Jamieson of Music Declares Emergency and the Grammy-nominated House DJ Jayda G about how festivals can become more sustainable and why the music industry can be an important voice in the fight for climate justice.

In this Earth Day Special of Flanigan's Eco-Logic, Ted speaks with Mike Rufo, Musician and Energy / Climate Policy Consultant and Activist. Mike has had a long and distinguished career working with energy efficiency and modelling, as well as resource planning and cost effectiveness evaluations. He is now semi-retired, focusing on his career in singing-songwriting, with three albums since 2012 and another recently released. Ted and Mike discuss his background, sharing that he had an untraditional childhood, landing in the flats of Hollywood in the early 70s when he was 12. He shares that there was a moment while living in Hollywood when he became aware of what smog was and how car-heavy LA was. The use of gas and nonrenewable resources didn't make sense to him, which led him down an environmental path in his studies and career.Ted and Mike then dive into his pivot from 30 years in virtually all aspects of energy resource consulting and management, to music and activism. Music, for him, became a vessel to be environmentally active. He shares that he is a Board Member of Music Declares (Climate) Emergency-US, which comprises a group of artists, music industry professionals and organizations that stand together to declare a climate and ecological emergency, and call for an immediate governmental response to reverse climate change. They believe in the power of music to promote the cultural change needed to create a better future.Mike recorded his first album in 2012, and recently released his new album, “living is," debuting a single from the album, “The Reckoning” which is his ode to Earth, live on the podcast for Earth Day! 

Mercury Prize-nominated folk singer, conservationist, song collector and activist, Sam Lee, plays a unique role in the British music scene, breaking boundaries between traditional and contemporary music and the assumed places and ways folksong is appreciated. Sam's voice has helped challenge what old songs hold for us today. His latest critically acclaimed album Songdreaming comes out today, of which Sam has said:“I wanted to sing a vision of what a conversation between us and the land could be, to restore and inspire a practice of songful immersion in nature that brings with it healing, something we need now more than ever."Sam's debut novel The Nightingale, notes on a songbird richly captivates these highly endangered birds and their place in culture, folklore, music and literature throughout the millennia. Sam is the founder of The Nest Collective, holding vibrant annual gatherings including a diverse range of music events across the UK, featuring outstanding emerging and established folk, world and roots artists from around the globe.  Perhaps most notable are his Singing With Nightingales gatherings in spring, where you can step silently into the night and listen as the finest musicians in the land duet with the sweet song of the ever more endangered nightingale.  Sam's also a regular radio and TV broadcaster, film soundtrack composer and has provided songs for several major feature films. As a change-maker in the music industry, he is a co-founder of Music Declares Emergency, FAC board member and the pioneering artist to work with leading environmental charity Earthpercent to whom a portion of proceeds of the current album will be donated.If you'd like to learn more about our work at Rooted Healing, you can head to rootedhealing.org and join us at our ceremonial nature-led gatherings or online courses in animistic deep ecology.  We have a very special gathering coming up this summer in Eryri, North Wales, called Ancestral, where you can join us and embody ancestral village life, full of songs, ancient stories, craft and ceremonies, all to bring us closer to our early ancestors and our role for the next generations to come, to the land and to our more-than-human kin.  The music in this episode is from Sam Lee and Bonnie Medicine.Support the show

Jules Nagele aka listentojules ist Soulmusikerin. Sie versucht, Musik mit Nachhaltigkeit zu verbinden und hat dafür jede Menge Tipps. Ihr neues Album ist in enger Zusammenarbeit mit einer Nachhaltigkeitsmanagerin entstanden. Es geht zum Beispiel um Ökostrom für's Mixing & Mastering, Second Hand Merchandise, Konzert-Tourneen mit der Bahn und selbstgekochtes Catering. Jules geht es nicht darum, den Zeigefinger zu erheben, sondern in einen gemeinsamen Austausch zu kommen. Denn Nachhaltigkeit muss nicht automatisch mehr Kosten, Zeit und Verzicht bedeuten.

Hello! Last year, around six million people went to a music festival in the UK. Long gone are the days of hippies at Woodstock or even jumping the fence at Glastonbury: festivals are everywhere, and they're big business. The upside is there's really something for everyone. Perhaps, like Ed, your twenties were also dominated by phone calls from Gordon Brown. We're here to convince you it's time to get down to a nearby field, no matter your age, music taste or enthusiasm for fancy dress! We talk festival mythology with Chris Anderton, to Kate Osler about what it's like to stage an independent festival and finally to Chiara Badiali about how going to a festival could be good for the climate.Plus: A tale of woe - Geoff vs. Lime BikeGuestsKate Osler, Festival Director, El Dorado Festival (@eldoradofestival)Chris Anderton, Associate Professor in Cultural Economy, Solent University (@SolentUni)Chiara Badiali, Music Lead, Julie's Bicycle (@JBgreenmusic / @JuliesBicycle)More informationCheck out the Association of Independent Festivals' ‘First Festival Campaign'El Dorado festival 2024Learn more about Julie's Bicycle including Music Declares Emergency and Vision 2025How the cost of living crisis is affecting music festivals (Article, MixMag)Glastonbury: Octopus energy builds wind turbine on-site (Article, thefestivals.uk)Contact Reasons to be Cheerful via our website, follow us on Twitter and Instagram.

"Nie ma muzyki na martwej planecie" - to hasło członków ruchu Music Declares Emergency, którzy jednoczą siły w działaniach, związanych z ochroną planety. - Chcemy mówić głośno o kryzysie klimatycznym i ekologicznym. Mamy świadomość, że również jako branża muzyczna wpływamy na środowisko. Możemy tak planować nasze poczynania, by generowały one mniejszy ślad węglowy - mówi Misia Furtak, która prowadzi polski oddział Music Declares Emergency. Organizacja działa w wielu krajach na całym świecie, a powstała w Wielkiej Brytanii. 

Kim Fry is a co-founder and board member for Music Declares Emergency Canada along with her daughter Brighid Fry from the indie rock band Housewife. Music Declares Emergency is a group of artists, music industry professionals and organisations that are looking to create solidarity in declaring a climate and ecological emergency and demanding an immediate governmental response to preserve life on Earth. Kim has worked on energy efficiency and climate but has also spent a lot of her career as an elementary school teacher, a union activist, a staunch climate justice activist and environmental campaigner. She's worked for a number of environmental organizations, which is part of the reason she's found herself devising strategies for Music Declares Emergency, which is moving to get a seat at the policy table by using the specific capacities of music to move people. Our conversation covers a number of different things that we're both curious about in relation to these capacities. But we also dwell with the material problems associated with the music industry at a time of escalating climate emergencies. How does the music industry contribute to climate change and what should be done to correct some of its impacts? Thinking in these terms helps us move beyond the tempting, but also fairly limiting, logic of condemning particular artists for their hypocrisy, their ostentatious lifestyles, etc., and into a conversation about the kind of music scenes and spaces of meaningful local music participation we'd like to see. What kinds of structural and infrastructural changes might have to be put in place for that to be realized? We're also concerned here with problems around genre, what kinds of music resonate, which tones seem out of touch with the complexity and urgency of the crisis created by an unaccountable fossil fuel industry and infrastructure… And we can't help but land on the fact that it's extremely complicated: there is undeniable power and influence in celebrity, and there is an inarguable concentration of power in a still quite monopolistic music industry. Transforming these things takes time that we do not have. The pace of change we need is more like a metal song, but what we've got is plaintive folk. It's not an easy problem to solve, this stuckness, but Kim encourages us to remember the meaning of the word folk – it's meant to be the music of the people. Just as pop is meant to be the music that is popular at a given time. This might give us an opening for thinking about the emergence of a new music nomenclature for conveying the climate breakdown that is coming if nothing stands in its way.

Can the music industry come together to lower our carbon footprint and save the planet? A unique organization is working to transform the music industry to address our climate emergency because in their words, there is #NoMusicOnaDeadPlanet”. Here to tell us about the initiative is Fay Milton. Fay is co-founder of Music Declares Emergency, a group of artists, music industry professionals and organizations that stand together to declare a climate and ecological emergency and call for an immediate governmental response. She is a presenter of the music and climate podcast Sounds Like a Plan produced by New Allotment. Fay is also a drummer and music producer, having played in a Mercury-nominated apocalyptic post-punk band. She joins us from London, England.

„No Music On A Dead Planet“ – eine simple, treffende Losung für ein unheimlich komplexes Thema. In dieser Ausgabe geht es um Klimagerechtigkeit und Nachhaltigkeit in der Musikwirtschaft. Wo steht die Branche aktuell? Wie groß kann die Verantwortung der Konsument*innen sein, solange noch nicht einmal die Grundstruktur systematisch umgewandelt worden ist? Und warum ist die Klimakrise nicht nur ökologischer, sondern auch sozialer Natur? Nach Antworten auf diese Fragen suchen wir gemeinsam mit Bosse Pogoda vom Reeperbahn Festival.

Julian Vogels hat Musiktechnologie studiert, 2014 das Unternehmen Soundbrenner mitgegründet (Hersteller von Smartwatches für Musiker:innen) und war dort 7 Jahre lang CTO. Jetzt ist er Nachhaltigkeitsberater und Software-Entwickler in der Nachhaltigkeitsbranche. Ich habe mit ihm auf dem Popkultur-Festival in Berlin gesprochen. Da war er als Speaker für Music Declares Emergency. Das ist eine Initiative, die Leute aus der Musikbranche gegründet haben, um sich für eine branchenweite Reaktion auf den Klimanotstand einzusetzen. Eine große Frage ist dabei: Wie werden Konzerte und Festivals nachhaltiger. Im Interview mit Umweltaktivist Julian Vogels geht's außerdem um Coldplay, Greenwashing und kinetische Dancefloors.

We speak to Lewis Jamieson, co-founder and Director of Communications at the environmental pressure group Music Declares Emergency. MDE recently partnered with the University of Glasgow, the BPI, and others to research the expectations of music fans. He's here to talk about what environmental changes music fans expect from their favourite artists, festivals, gig venues and labels – and what fans can do to make a difference. Lewis puts forward the case that making positive environmental changes is not just right, it's sound business sense – and he talks about the power that fans have to demand these changes. He also explains how fans and the artists they love can form communities that can make positive change happen, and also create a collective support group that helps them feel that they are making a real difference. Lewis also explains how people working on artist's teams, at labels, and at other music businesses can get to grips with a problem that often feels overwhelming – and how to start to effect real change.

On this week's podcast, Canadian Musician Editor-in-Chief Mike Raine is joined by Kim Fry, one of the organizers behind Music Declares Emergency Canada (MDEC). It's the Canadian chapter of a global movement of people in the music industry working together “towards a carbon neutral future.” More than 200 artists have signed on in Canada, including Tegan & Sara, LAL, Sarah Harmer, Caribou, and members of Broken Social Scene and Tokyo Police Club. Kim, who has a background with Greenpeace and climate activism, is also the mother of Brighid Fry of the popular Canadian indie-folk group Housewife (formerly Moscow Apartment). Mike and Kim discuss MDE/MDEC's formation, it's approach to activism and making change, why and how artists should get involved with climate activism, even if they're not “perfect” environmentalists, and what specifically the music industry needs to change in order to be part of the solution of halting climate change. For more about Music Declares Emergency, go to www.musicdeclares.net.

Music Declares Emergency is a global collaboration of music industry professionals responding to our climate emergency. In 2021, the volunteer-run organization launched a Canadian chapter with the help of Kim Fry, who is no stranger to the climate justice movement. Kim Fry has previously worked for Greenpeace and organized groups for climate justice rallies. Kim joins Earth Care to talk about Music Declares Emergency's work to build a greener future, the role artists play in the fight against climate change, and how music industry professionals can get involved.

Zahlreiche Schweizer Musiker:innen machen heute auf ihren Social-Media-Profilen auf «Music Declares Emergency» aufmerksam. Fast alle grossen Schweizer Sommerfestivals (u. a. das OpenAir St. Gallen oder das Gurtenfestival) sind bei dieser Aktion ebenfalls dabei. Was steckt dahinter? Wir haben bei teilnehmenden Künstler:innen und Festivals nachgefragt: Ist das bloss Social-Media-Aktivismus, oder verfolgt diese Aktion, mit der Musikschaffende auf den Klimanotstand aufmerksam machen möchten, konkrete Ziele? Das Duo Steiner & Madlaina, sowie Rolf Furrer, Geschäftsführer von «Zermatt Unplugged», stellen sich unseren Fragen.

EP 13 of the Creative Climate Podcast sees our host, Perry Serpa mind melding with UK-based Music Declares Emergency campaign director, Maddy Read Clarke. No doubt, another music industry veteran at the ready for climate forwardness. Maddy goes beyond MDE's uber successful "NO MUSIC ON A DEAD PLANET" campaign to discuss plans for the near future, including TURN UP THE VOLUME and other collaborative activities and announcements around Earth Day with organizations such as EarthPercent, a new music industry-focused climate org headed up by none other than the iconic music maker/producer/visionary Brian Eno, among others. We also give Maddy the opportunity to tell her own music biz story, talk to us about the early days of Music Declares and their part in the XR-driven Marble Arch climate rally, and to even stake her claim to this episode's Hottest On Record, a new UK indie outfit called Roscoe Roscoe and their rocker, "Brain Retrieve." Incidentally, the band's  singer/guitarist Charlie Read Clarke, is Maddy's son. 

Music inspired by, related to and about climate change. In support of Music Declares Emergency. "Heading towards the make-or-break COP26 UN Climate Negotiations in Glasgow Nov '21, we are gathering the music industry, artists and fans together to let our governments know we all want urgent action on climate. During the week of the 19th - 25th April, the music industry will be making some huge climate-positive announcements and artists from all over the musical spectrum, from pop to dancehall to metal to classical, will be sharing a unified message. There's never been a better time to speak out on the climate and ecological crisis... because there will be #nomusiconadeadplanet"

Calling on governments to "tell the truth about the climate emergency", the Music Declares Emergency initiative has brought together artists including Billie Eilish, Massive Attack and Radiohead. Since its launch in France, it has attracted similar support. DJ and producer Fakear joins us to tell us why he signed up to the project, as well as how touring and festivals can become greener. As people around the world mark Earth Day, we talk about government responses to activism and the planet's capacity to regenerate with – or without – the human race.

Alison Tickell from Julie's Bicycle and Horst Weidenmueller from !K7 on IMPALA's climate programme, #EarthDay celebrations, #turnupthevolume campaign with Music Declares Emergency, why we should tackle climate emergency in the music industry and where to start, as well as IMPALA's targets. Alison and Horst also talk about quick and easy wins for music companies, the importance of having access to practical guidance and best practices that explain the benefits of taking early action and why IMPALA's programme underlines that there is no one size fits all in Europe. On Alison's playlist : Esperanza Spalding, Oscar Jerome, Love Ssega, JB FM playlist on SpotifyOn Horst playlist: DJ-Kicks mix for !K7, Floating Points, Pharoah Sanders.

The feeling of hopelessness when faced with the climate crisis is something that many of us will recognise. For Maddy it felt like despite the world's efforts, her community's efforts, there had been no systemic or radical movement towards tackling climate change. However when she came across Extinction Rebellion, and the community that came with it she felt suddenly that change was possible, and that there was hope. Since then she has stayed supporting XR while also working from within the music industry. The task of dismantling the reliance that we all have on fossil fuels sometimes seems too large to comprehend but as Maddy talks it becomes clear that we all play our part, and that we can make a difference. For the music industry that looks like (amongst many other things) divesting pensions, organising tours to involve the least amount of flying, as well as supporting causes such as XR. There are many ways to get involved, Extinction Rebellion can be found here, Music Declares Emergency is here, and is on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

For Episode 5 - Why Is A Picture's Worth A Thousand Words? - Visual Art & Activism, our host, Perry Serpa  discusses anxiety on the eve of the 2020 General Election before a stimulating conversation with internationally acclaimed artist/activist twosome Heather Ackroyd and Dan Harvey. Heather and Dan fill Perry in about their current thing, a reactive UK based initiative called Culture Declares Emergency formed in 2019 as a response to the global climate and ecological emergency. The initiative has, since its inception, found support with a wide range of artists and organizations, including Akram Khan, Cornelia Parker, Antony Gormley, Brian Eno, Tate Galleries, Bristol Old Vic, Royal Court Theatre, Somerset House amongst 1000+ and an offshoot initiative, Music Declares Emergency, found 'declarers' in Billie Eilish, Radiohead, The 1975 and many others. Then, for Hottest On Record, singer/songwriter/guitarist, Joe Sumner contributes a brand new track, "Hope," recently used for a successful get out the vote Headcount campaign in the form of a singalong chorus video featuring Ben Folds, Patti Scialfa, The Fantastic Negrito, Juliana Hatfield, Gaby Moreno, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski (MSNBC's Morning Joe) and Sumner's famous dad (Sting). The "Hope The Vote" chorus video enjoyed concurrent debuts on the aforementioned Morning Joe and Rolling Stone. You get to hear the full track on the Creative Climate Podcast, which will kick off Sumner's forthcoming album, "Sunshine In The Night," due out next year. In case you're wondering, Serpa's co-host, Kirsten Spruch is out on assignment for this one, whoopin' it up in Austin, Texas and trying to flip the state before Biden gets to it. She rejoins for Episode 6.
