Campaign Story
Music
is a vital expression for many people, and a powerful part of the faith
community—it's a form of celebration of that belief. But what happens
when your voice is silenced, for living your truth?
Featuring
beloved classic and current music artists and personalities like Marsha
Stevens, Ray Boltz, Flamy Grant, Semler, Billy Newton-Davis, Jess Grace
Garcia, Azariah Southworth, Rev. Diedre Gray, Jason & deMarco,
Ricky Braddy, Trey Pearson, Derek Webb, Deacon Ross Murray and Ronté
Pierce, SONG SILENCED: COMING OUT IN CHRISTIAN MUSIC tells the stories
of faith-based music professionals, who took a great risk in coming out
of the closet and faced silencing, and "Out" artists in the space, who
share their message of love, faith, and inclusion far and wide, on a
mission of equality and for the right to be who you are without
sacrifice or silence.
Award-winning director Ry Levey (OUT IN THE RING) and Emmy-nominated Producer Cheryl Staurulakis have recently
completed principle production on SONG SILENCED. The powerful
testimonials and footage now head into the edit suite. Funds raised in
this campaign will not only cover the completion of Post Production
(including Sound Mix and Color), they will also fund publicity and
travel to festivals for the subjects and crew.
