Lullaby Project 2017

by Keys to Life Lullaby Project

Seventeen lullabies created by incarcerated parents for their children, with guidance from community music mentors. Includes a bonus track.

The Hiland Mountain Lullaby Project is one of 33 projects sponsored by Carnegie Hall Weill Music Institute.

Shirley M. Springer Staten worked with Hiland Superintendent Gloria Johnson and her staff to bring the Lullaby Project to Hiland Mountain Correctional Center for the second year in a row. The Lullaby Project experience helped the mothers in prison to heal and bond with their children. These lullabies are more than songs. Each song brings hope to the child, unspoken words from the parents, and possibility of a better life together.
