Drew Landry recorded BP Blues and promises the proceeds to benefit the 7 Riverkeepers, Coastkeepers, Bayoukeepers and Baykeepers charged with protecting the Gulf Coast from Apalachicola to Galveston. 

"It's about standing up for the people that are the real America, not the greed that leaches the life from the land" said Landry.

Listen and buy Landry's BP Blues on iTunes.  Support your Gulf Coast Waterkeepers.

2011 Wild & Scenic Film Festival Sept. 2 & 3
Join us at the Dixie Theatre for the world premiere of "A Different Way of Doing Business"
Wild Local filmmaker Merrill Livingston and producer/entrepreneuer Charles Morgan introduce "A Different Way of Doing Business"  - a film charting the creation of a sustainable community grocery and restaurant in Red Bay, Florida.  Join us Friday, Sept. 2 at 6 p.m. for the reception, 7 p.m. for the film festival. 

Saturday night, we will bring you Chattahoochee: Water War to Water Vision - never has a film been more appropriate for our times as we struggle to assure adequate water allocations to the Apalachicola from our neighboring states.

In addition to the Red Bay and Chattahoochee films, we have a series of short wonderful films that will inspire you, make you laugh and make you think.
