"Songs can live forever" Swan Song in Rarity Life Magazine

Rarity Life Issue 11 Swan Song Social Media Asset 2

Read “Songs can live forever” In conversation with Ben Buddy Slack in issue 11 of Rarity Life magazine.

Rarity Life Magazine is a truly inclusive magazine for those affected by disability, rare disease or cancer and is produced by Same but Different CIC. It is a great read and features a real range of stories and experiences.

I was very happy to be asked to feature in it. I had a lovely conversation with one of their team who asked lots of very insightful questions about the work we do at The Swan Song Project. It also covers a bit of the history of how I came to start the project and my theory of how “songs can live forever”.

“Just wanted to thank you for being around at Marie Curie hospice, my son passed away on 22 March what was going on in his head is unimaginable. I know he enjoyed writing that song which must have provided some relief for him a break from the discomfort and stress perhaps. So a sincere thank you from myself and his family I hope you can keep up this good work”

“This has been one of the best memories I can recall in a long while. I will treasure this great gift always.”
