GREEN COUCH SESSIONS

At one time or another, there have been many vehicles used to spread awareness of music and community: Radio, MTV, the Magic School Bus… etc. One of the latest of those is Green Couch Sessions. A local operation that promotes Vancouver music through a series of experimental videos that showcase the artist(s) and their environment. What makes them special is not just their choice of furniture but also their method of making each video unlike the rest. This consists of artists simply playing their music on the Green Couch in a new environment to create a sound unique the session; thus showcasing the talent and the city at the same time. If that weren’t enough, they also host monthly parties featuring various artists for a night of fun and collaboration. Not bad folks… Keep up the good work!

Here’s a video session with the beautiful and talented… Carly Rae Jepsen. Enjoy!
