The Wood Buffalo Youth Song Project

June 20th, 2011

In March 2011, Thom Swift and Keith Mullins visited ten schools in ten days in Northern Alberta.  Each morning they worked with a small group of students to create a song from scratch.  The songs explore themes of love, family, strength, community and heritage. The student’s voices were recorded, followed by the songwriters’ voices and instruments. Each song was written, performed, and recorded in one day.  This is The Wood Buffalo Youth Song Project.  The purchase of this recording will assist school programs and youth support initiatives.

The project was funded by the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo
