ABOUT THE ALBUM:

My 4Culture grant-funded full-length album "The Canary Collective: Vol 1" is my contribution to the dialogue amongst humans on this planet about who deserves to be able to afford healthcare, clean air, water, food, and shelter. It's me singing my sensitive soul song in the coal mine. I collaborated with other "womxn and queers" such as Luz Elena Mendoza of band Y La Bamba and Nataly Dawn of Pomplamoose to make a Cat Power and Sufjan Stevens-inspired collage of poetry, songs, and TED Talk quotes. I hope to continue to use my music and unique performance style to get people talking and singing about the ties between our healing bodies and our healing ecosystems on this planet.

lyrics

“Sensitive People:

the skin in its ephemeral softness
the incandescence that allows the candle flame through
is a wild power.
This body can bottle beauty
and pour the elixir of love into the throats of the thirsty.
Sensitivity is a sweetness, a drop of liquid gold on the tongue.”
Afrose Fatima Ahmed


“We must never be ashamed. Despite subtle messages to the contrary,
we deserve the best.”
Jessica Slice

“Inocente:

Mi madre mia ella es buena, mujer hermosa y guerrera
Inocente come la luz de la manacer
Fosforose como el sol,
quemadita junta la flor
Destruyendo su ser para crecer de nuevo
como llegua un campo
con el sonido de un wapango
comparte de se su vida,

mientras los de mas se burlan de ella

Mi madre mia ella es buena, mujer hermosa y guerrera

Inocente come la luz de la manacer

- Luz Elena Mendoza
