Darwin Song Project Concert
Shrewsbury, March 19th 2009
The Earl of Darwin's Farewell / Save a Place
written by Stu Hanna, Jez Lowe, Emily Smith
performed by Emily Smith, Stu Hanna, Jez Lowe and Rachael McShane
In March 2009 eight folk singer/songwriters gathered together for a week long songwriting residential in rural Shropshire to create songs that had a relevance and resonance with Charles Darwin.
The eight artists were Chris Wood, Karine Polwart, Stu Hanna, Rachael McShane, Krista Detor, Emily Smith, Mark Erelli and Jez Lowe.
The whole concert was recorded for an upcoming CD release (July 2009), and the 8 musicians will reconvene at the Shrewsbury Folk Festival in August, to once again perform the 19 songs that were written during the week.

I know that life is short in the perspective of time, I know that our choices and decisions determine this time and I know that it's a matter of time... I know that I can only make a difference now, not yesterday but tomorrow's...

A song worthy of Darwin himself. Thank you. Beautifully done.

Emily's lovely... I saw her at East Kilbride last Saturday! She has the clearest voice and a nice personality too!

Yes, I ended up doing the same thing- just wished I sounded even a fraction as good as Emily does- if you haven't heard it- A Silver Tassie is also really beautiful when she sings it- thanks for replying

To Jamestfan-- I had the same problem so I wrote the words down from the dvd by pausing at the end of each line. Well worth the effort to learn such a lovely song
