HAPPY EARTH DAY!!!

I've always pay extra attention to bands with nature and earthy subject matter in their songs (as I am a pretty big nature-lover myself); check out some my favourite music + nature projects from the past few years below.


National Parks Project

NPP is a Canadian music and film project created to document the stunning Canadian landscape and to celebrate Parks Canada's 100th anniversary—the world's first national parks system! I absolutely LOVE everything to do with this project: incredible soundtrack, beautiful coin design, and one of the best looking interactive site I have ever experienced!
