Interview (Part 5 of 5) - Long Time Gone - The Prison Music Project eTown host Nick Forster speaks with singer/songwriters and producers Zoë Boekbinder and Ani Difranco, and poet Nathen Jackson Brown about The Prison Music Project. Follow the playlist on our channel to hear the specific tracks talked about in this five-part interview. In 2010, folk-singer and songwriter Zoe Boekbinder (they/them) visited New Folsom Prison for the first time. What they thought would be one interesting day turned into a decade-long collaborative project. Boekbinder visited the prison often over the next five years; performing and teaching music workshops quickly turned into the beginnings of collaborations with writers and musicians who were incarcerated within New Folsom's walls. Boekbinder collaborated on the first of these songs with Alex Batriz, and following that, was approached by many more writers about collaborations. This was the seed for the Prison Music Project and the culminating album, Long Time Gone, produced by Ani DiFranco. Out now on Righteous Babe Records, the album features work by nine incarcerated (and formerly incarcerated) writers.
