The Michael J. Epstein Memorial Library convinced 5 of our favorite visual artists to join us: we provided each artist with a song to use as inspiration to create a visual piece. Each artist provided us with a visual work, which we used as the inspiration to write and record a song. We documented our songwriting process and posted videos below showcasing our approach to this project.
The final pieces (and songs) were shown and performed at: Out of the Blue Gallery on September 14, 2012.
The night also featured performances by:
