Everyone in prison has a story to tell, and many prisoners do it through songwriting. Inside Voices United goes into prisons and records original inmate songs. These are songs of loss, love, tradgedy and redemption. Our Podcast features interviews with these same prison inmates, who tell us about their musical inspiration and the stories behind their original songs. Podcast hosted by Greg Smith.
Inside Voices United is a non-profit organization. Check out all of these inmate songs at: https://www.insidevoicesunited.org/. Email us at: insidevoicesunited@gmail.com.
