Roger Brown & Annette Philip - Mark My Brow - Tribute to Tagore
Honoring one of India’s most prolific thinkers, Tagore (1861-1941), “Mark My Brow” is a theatrical adaptation of Tagore’s evocative imagery in the poem and personalizes it with reflections on being both a child and a parent; wondering if any of the strivings we all pursue make a difference. Annette and Roger invited some of their favorite musicians to bring this composition to life, and recorded it at the newly renovated Power Station/BerkleeNYC studios.

Tigs & Nettles (Stephen Webber & Annette Philip) - No Visitors Allowed
Stephen (Tigs) began writing a song in memory of his father who passed away in Feb ‘20, a month before lockdown began in USA. As the days turned into weeks and months, from a personal story about grief, it became about our collective grief in this strange period of our lives. Writing & recording “No Visitors Allowed” was a way of processing; catharsis.
