Live from the Sanctuary

Celebrate the power of singing with the creators of Rise Up Singing. An evening of rejuvenation, inspiration and healing through song. 

Livestream link is at: https://www.livefromsanctuary.org/ 
Broadcasting on Saturday, Dec. 5 at 7:00 pm Eastern Time

For this special event, donations will be split between the artists and the Movement Voter Project - with funds for the latter helping grassroots organizations on the ground get out the vote for the senate run-off elections in Georgia in early January.

Annie Patterson has a rare voice that spreads hope, stirs your soul and makes you glad to be working together for a better world. She is a singer songwriter, old timey banjo player as well as jazz vocalist with the swing trio, Girls from Mars. Her long-time partner, Peter Blood, accompanies her on fiddle & guitar. Together, Annie & Peter have played a central role in helping create a quiet revolution of group singing in North America. A new documentary film, We Began to Sing, follows their musical journey as well as the work of friend and mentor Pete Seeger in creating peace and social justice through communal singing. 

“Annie Patterson is one of the true lights in my universe. Her expressive voice and sparkling presence makes every song she touches come alive. Her musicality and her commitment to sharing the magic and the power of song makes her the real deal. I’m a big fan.” - Reggie Harris
