Award winning author, Heather Jacks and highly acclaimed performing artist/musician, Keaton Simons will be hosting an intimate evening of film and music in the East Village of New York City.
After running a successful online crowdfunding campaign, via Rockethub, 30 New York City street musicians who were featured in the Award Winning Book, The Noise Beneath the Apple were invited to Grand Street Recording in Brooklyn, New York to create a version of the Billy Joel song, New York State of Mind.
The six-plus minute jazz infused single, features some of the best, most innovative and talented musicians from the streets of New York City; violins, musical saw, cello, accordion, stunning vocals and more blend together to create this unique song.
From the ten hours in the recording studio, a 13 minute, short documentary film was also created, capturing the day and experience as it unfolded.
