Thank you to the crew who sang with us! The right people were there, tenderness, grit, and support were shared. Community was tended. This is part of the dream Liz and Conie are working towards!

Special thanks to Rosy Simas Danse for hosting us and offering Conie B a transdisciplinary artist space residency for the week.  Deep gratitude to Rebekah, the studio manager, and George for taking photos (coming soon)!

The next Songs in Our Bodies On this Land will be Friday, March 8, 2024 in Studio 240 in the Northrup-King Building (another Rosy Simas Danse space).  After that Liz and I are imagining we'll be back at the river starting in April.  Stay tuned here or signup for the "Soul Songs BIPOC/Mixed Singing Space" list here.  

Keep singing and stay warm, hydrated and creative!
