“It Started in the Garden” (2021), with its shimmering and tormented string passages and howling vocals, is Boulanger’s new single and first music video. “It’s more than a dark and moody love story of when you do something you love with someone you love and then they turn around and do it with someone else,” explains Boulanger. “As a passionate environmentalist, I’ve partnered with environmental organizations to raise awareness for the indelible importance of biodiversity in the face of climate change. The video includes choreography in intoxicating gardens and wild forests with roaming wolves.”

Indigo

Song written to highlight the plight of Ukraine ... the atrocities, the war crimes, the sheer audacity of Putin, the courage of the Ukranians and the failure of all of us to keep world peace. Listen carefully.
CHORUS... I pray for the soldier missing his wife. I pray for the children, this is no life. Let's end this madness uncontrolled. And pray for the Blue and Gold.

Leaving The Lagoon

Blues featuring Sally ANDREW on harmonica, vocals, dueling lead guitars, rhythm and drums. The point of the song - Modern times are tough times. Homeless sleep rough, and in winter it's cold. But watch out ! Your luck can change in the blink of an eye. In lots of cities nowadays, people simply find themselves unable to afford housing or health care or proper food. Warm clean clothes, food, money,  shelter, any offering helps. There but by the grace of God ... We should all try to be conscious of our fortune and others misfortune. Life is not always easy.
