Freedom Singer

2018-11-23T21:29:53-08:00January 20, 2016|Inspiration Station, News|

Khari McClelland is a beautiful friend of mine. His heart and soul are as big as his talents. He’s been working on a gorgeous project called Freedom Singer.

He retraced her steps and became curious. He read stories and became even more curious. He heard people share and he wondered  “What was the music that followed these people on their journey?”.  His music is potent and stirring, heavy and hopeful. I was honoured […]

Sunday Slow Jam Vol.106 – Sweet Sucker Dance

I like to think that they admired each other and understood each other deeply.

Listen to the amazing Wayne […]
