I have been inspired lately by the community singing movement. The circles of people that gather together to teach each other songs, to remember songs, to raise our voices in prayer and celebration and grief and awe and gratitude. To remember that we are all human beings meant to make sound, especially in community. Check out the offerings page to see upcoming singing events!

Here are some wonderful artists, creators, song leaders, and song libraries to explore:

• The Bird Sings Song Library

• Songs For The Great Turning

• Lyndsey Scott

• Laurence Cole

• Barbara McAfee

• Ahlay Blakely

One of the ways I’ve felt called into my own creativity lately has been through catching songs that can be sung in community. Layer songs, songs with repetition, songs with harmony, songs that speak to collective themes of grieving and living and loving. It fills me with so much joy. Check them out on soundcloud!
