Street Arts Project, a non-profit charity working with the homeless and vulnerable of Stratford upon Avon, will be releasing their new album ‘Wake Me Up Tomorrow’ on January 14th.

The album is the culmination of two years workshops throughout the lockdowns and features Street Arts Project’s participants and professional musicians, Nigel Clark (frontman of ‘90s Britpop legends Dodgy), Wes Finch and Jack Blackman. 

The 13 songs on ‘Wake Me Up Tomorrow’ tackle the themes of addiction, loneliness, boats, mental health problems, isolation, even 19th century dentistry! 

The workshops, funded by Stratford Town Trust, support attendees to write lyrics, poems, a piece of music, or simply a page of thoughts, that are then crafted into songs.

Doug Armstrong, Facilitator said “We give a voice to experiences and feelings and a chance to unlock a creativity that the participants hadn't previously known how to articulate or share. Fun, at times bizarre, occasionally sad, but always real. Just like life.”

The first single is the title track, ‘Wake Me Up Tomorrow’ featuring lyrics by Jonas, originally from Lithuania. Jonas spent years sleeping rough in a tent.
