My Musical Collaboration With A 9-Year-Old…

I was a teenager at family camp when I first wrote a song with a bunch of kids. I immediately recognized this as one of my favorite things to do and, ever since, I’ve written music with kids whenever I’ve had the chance. This music we’ve written has been some of my best, but it never gets recorded properly or released. In a rare exception, I made an EP with one of my favorite students, Lucy, age 9, titled “If You Don’t Like It, Please Leave”.
