It all started with a dream, countless zoom calls and the dedication of a team of inspired creatives, 3 years after the initial idea, we made it and loved it! It was definitely the biggest tour we've ever taken, spanning 22 cities and their prestigious performing arts centers, all between 700-2000 seaters (nervous!). For us, what was also special was curating and brainstorming with presenters & artists over the years to deliver not just the concerts, but panels that speak about climate, gender, indigenous cultures, entrepreneurship, as well as creative workshops like up-cycle instrument making & dance parties.
We also reached out beyond these arts centers & campus, performing with 5 Caribbean musicians at Miami-Dade; jamming with first nation musicians at Stanford, Lehigh, UConn, Warner Grand & Univ.IL; sharing the stage with indigenous activists at Mount Baker, UMass & Univ.AZ; as well as performing with youths and sign language group at Penn State. We treasure the new friendships we formed and a new touring model that enabled rich engagements with the youths and local environmental, artistic & indigenous communities.

"Honestly [Small Island Big Song] was one of the best, most wonderful projects I have worked on in a presenting career that is going on 30 years!"
Amy Vashaw - Center for the Performing Arts - Penn State University

A difficult boss in an Action Games can feel more manageable once its behavior is understood. Rather than attacking constantly, watch for repeating cues and identify the moments when the boss is most vulnerable.

Slope Game can provide a quick mental reset because the gameplay demands immediate attention. Once the run begins, focusing on the next section can temporarily push other distractions into the background.

Thirty-six concerts across twenty-two cities is the kind of tour that only makes sense in hindsight - three years of zoom calls before the first downbeat is the part nobody sees. What also rarely survives a tour that size is the footage: every hall has different light and a different stage depth, so a recap cut from twenty-two venues can look like twenty-two different bands. That is what I use Reference to Video for - reference frames from one show keep the colour and framing consistent across the rest.
