Episode 065: What Does Recovery Sound Like with the John Lennon Educational Tour Bus - Part I

Send us Fan MailThis week is the first in a two-part episode on our new collaboration with the John Lennon Educational Tour Bus. In our work to help the communities impacted by the Palisades and Eaton Fires recover and rebuild, we reached out to the Lennon Bus nonprofit because of their past work with kids affected by disasters. We wanted to create an initiative to help children affected by the fires tell their stories and connect with one another over their shared hardships as their schools, communities, and families have struggled to recover. The Lennon Bus offers just such a program by bringing students together through music-making and storytelling. In this first episode, we hear from the bus's co-creator, Brian Rothschild, MySafe:LA Executive Director, David Barrett, and the kids of Altadena and Pasadena through their original songs.Resources:John Lennon Educational Tour BusMySafe:LA's Lennon Bus Collab"Hiraeth" by students from Altadena"Mr. Change" by students from Blair High School in PasadenaMusic Impact CoalitionSupport the show
