Watching Mark Moskowitz’s new 10-episode film series It Was the Music - featuring Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams - captures palpably for us such relationships between musician and audience and the magic of the music. "It Was the Music is about what music means to us,” says Moskowitz, “the way my film, Stone Reader, is about what books means to us, and my upcoming film, Art Stops Here, is about what art means to us. In the end, these films are about us, how people respond to the arts. Not quite documentary, not quite reality, not quite memoir, not quite even story, It Was the Music is referential, memory-like. It’s allusive. Things touch other things…much like a song.”

Laurie Lewis loves to set out on new adventures, and her new song “Just a Little Ways down the Road” and its accompanying video celebrate her peripatetic ways. The jaunty song scampers along as Lewis dances and sings about the new vistas that lie around every bend and the joy of setting out on a new trail to discover just what’s over the next rise in the road.
