Soldier Songs and Voices @ The Redbird - 12:30 pm

We are proud to present an early afternoon showcase of military veteran / songwriters who have been participating in Soldier Songs and Voices.

Founded by Dustin Welch in 2011 in Austin, Texas

Soldier Songs and Voices is now a nationwide program, with thirteen chapters operating throughout the USA. Dustin saw an opportunity for the program to work in Australia and through the support and backing of People First Charitable Trust, launched Soldier Songs and Voices Australia in March 2016.

While music has long been believed to have therapeutic power, 20th century advances in neuroscience allowed researchers to map the effects of music on the brain (link to article)

We are contributing to the growing body of research that indicates music is not a supplement to therapy, but is in itself a proven method to retrain and re-educate the brain. https://www.soldiersongsandvoices.com/
