We are excited to announce two ways that you can celebrate Earth Day with us this week:
On Earth Day itself (April 22nd) starting at 10AM Pacific we are participating in an event hosted by The Brooklyn Rail. This online event, The Sound of Science, will be a mind meld of scientists and artists around the topic of climate. We’ll be featuring a short version of our very first composition, Climate , and will have composer Erik Ian Walker on hand with Dr. Andy Jones and Laurie Goldman to offer their insights about music, science, science + music, and climate action. The event will include additional contributions by an impressive line-up of guests, including Paul Miller, aka DJ Spooky, journalist and accomplished musician Andrew Revkin, scientist Dr. Jacqueline Austermann, artist Torkwase Dyson, and more!

Throughout the week, we’ll be running our springtime edition of Play for the Planet! This light-hearted campaign offers musicians of all stripes a platform to provide a musical answer to the question: What Do You Want The Future To Sound Like? Participants also call out their favorite climate action/environmental organizations to help spread the good news that there is a lot of good work being done out there! When we ran the campaign last fall, we received video submissions from across the globe!
If you’d like to view the videos or submit one yourself (it’s not too late and it’s easy!), please click here for more information. We’ll be posting videos throughout the week, so check back frequently! 🙂
