‘Raise Your Voice’ Featured in Worldwide Anti-Hunger Campaign

Thursday, June 17, 2010

OKLAHOMA CITY – An anti-hunger anthem by Oklahoma folk singer-songwriter K.C. Clifford has been selected as the theme song for CROP Hunger Walk 2010, a worldwide public awareness campaign led by Church World Service to help end hunger locally and globally.

Clifford wrote “Raise Your Voice” to support the efforts of Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma, and in March 2009 performed the song for a national television audience on a special segment of the NBC reality television show “The Biggest Loser.”  The experience has led to a series of performances at food banks across the country.  The song is available on iTunes and at www.kcclifford.com.  

“Hunger is an issue that’s very close to my heart,” Clifford said.  “I’ve dealt with hunger and weight-loss issues most of my life, and made a commitment to do what I can to help others who are struggling.  I feel extremely honored, and humbled, that this song continues to touch the lives of so many.”

Approximately two million people participated in CROP Hunger Walks in their communities last year, raising more than $16 million to help end hunger and poverty around the world and in their own communities. 

CROP Hunger Walks are currently being organized in Oklahoma communities for September and October, including: Bartlesville, Claremore, Edmond, Midwest City, Norman, Ponca City, Stillwater and Tulsa. 

Founded in 1946, Church World Service is a cooperative ministry of 36 Christian denominations and communions working together to eradicate hunger and poverty and promote peace and justice among the world’s most vulnerable people.

Local Musicians to Host Summer Songwriting Camp for Kids

Thursday, May 27, 2010

OKLAHOMA CITY – Oklahoma folk singer-songwriter K.C. Clifford and her indie rocker husband David “Dr. Pants” Broyles will host two summer songwriting camps for children age seven and older June 14-17 and July 12-15 at The Convergence Creative Space, 1755 N.W. 16^th St. in Oklahoma City’s Plaza District.

K.C. Clifford is a three-time Woody Guthrie Award winning singer-songwriter with more than 10 years experience as a professional performer.  David Broyles is lead singer of the popular indie rock band Dr. Pants.  The pair has a long history of songwriting collaboration, and is currently touring together in support of Clifford’s new album, Orchid.

Each 4-day songwriting session will be divided into two age groups: ages 7-12 from 9 a.m. to noon, and ages 13 and older from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.  No prior music experience is necessary.  Adults are welcome in the afternoon session. 

The cost is $200 per student and includes 12 hours of group and individual instruction.

Participants will learn the basics of songwriting, including inspiration, song structure and the “vocabulary” of songwriting through group and individual songwriting exercises.  Each song the child writes individually or in collaboration will be recorded and included on their take-home CD.    

Class size is limited to 15.  Email K.C. Clifford at kcclifford@kcclifford.com for more information or to register.
