AUSTIN, Texas, June 21, 2021 - The Center for Music Therapy (CFMT) is thrilled to announce our "In the Park" Global Release. The Austin-based CFMT team partnered with Limelight Music Productions from Glasgow, Scotland to empower musicians of all abilities around the world. The Rock 'n Roll Music Therapy Workshop was a virtual collaboration between CFMT Music Therapists and Limelight Music artists. Together, the organizations provided a creative space for a group of neurodiverse musicians to produce professional projects and share them with the world. The Paradise Band was formed from this workshop consisting of band members Trey Haas and Micheal Dodson and we're celebrating the launch of their first two songs.
Together we're celebrating the release of two songs; "In The Park" and "Hurin Da". The celebration will include an online watch party, a guest performance by jazz legend Stanley Jordan as well as Paradise Band and CFMT music therapists, and an online moderated panel (moderator Dr. Raymond MacDonald) featuring the Limelight and CFMT teams. The evening will end with an in-person party outside The Center For Music Therapy's office in Austin, Texas. Come celebrate this global music collaboration between CFMT and Limelight!
The In the Park global release will happen on Friday, June 25th. The online premiere, Q&A panel and performances are from 5 - 6 PM CST (United States)/11 PM - 12 AM WET (Scotland) and the in-person premiere party is from 6 - 7 PM CST (United States)/12 - 1 AM WET (Scotland).
