Music for Plants: Live in the Garden

Peter Coffin's 2006 compilation CD, Music for Plants, was made after his invitation to a diverse group of musical artists led to a variety of realizations of the title concept. His release party on Sunday, May 8, 2005 at the
6th Street and Avenue B Community Garden featured playback on a beatbox soundsystem, spiked punch and an assembled group of mellowed, introspective friends and passersby. The Clocktower's Jeannie Hopper wandered the grounds and collected assorted reflections.
