MP3 CD Collins & Rockabetty - Carousel Lounge
"Carousel Lounge" chronicles events that occur at night, undercover, unobserved. It focuses on the fragile and endangered among us—our children, our wildlife, our planet. These poems and stories are accompanied by the soulful, bluesy band, Rockabetty.
12 MP3 Songs
SPOKEN WORD: With Music, FOLK: Appalachian Folk
Details:
Over the summer, CD made two music videos based on two tracks from "Carousel Lounge." One, "Understory," details the steps of mountaintop removal, the catastrophic environmental practice of destroying Appalachian mountaintops to get at the coal. You can see it at https://www.tradebit.com
The other, "City of Dreams," is a lyric love poem that she had translated into several languages and set to music. The resulting video, a montage of images and women''s voices, weaves a tapestry of hope and is a dedication to one of the project''s sponsors, Women Waging Peace, a network of women peacemakers from conflict areas around the world.
Twenty-five percent of the proceeds from each compact disc will be donated to the Ohio Valley Environmental Coalition - https://www.tradebit.com - to help fight against mountaintop removal mining.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT "CAROUSEL LOUNGE"
“The first half of this album is down home, earthy, comforting and familiar. But the second half is a different journey— so personal it goes under the skin, through the muscle and the sinews, digging, cracking through the bones. But then you just keep on going, until it becomes transcendent. It becomes my story too.”
-- Nell Josephine
"The music is so fine and varied from song to song, and using the episodes at the Lounge as an organizing principle is very powerful. It''s heartbreaking."
-- Alexandra Marshall
