We Are Willow – Manchester Mind

A collaboration between UK art collective We Are Willow and Manchester Mind contributing to continued awareness of male mental health, with proceeds from the project going to the charity. This unique World Mental Health Day event features four film commissions, spoken word performances and launches a new exclusive 12 track album included in the ticket price.

We Are Willow presents a body of work exploring the topic by a series of internationally acclaimed mixed discipline artists, that intends to challenge and inspire the audience whilst celebrating the makers involved. ‘A Different Light’ uses creativity to encourage more open discussion of sensitive issues that affect us all.

FOUR SONGS written and recorded by We Are Willow featuring ‘Chorus Of Others’ male choir formed for Manchester International Festival 2017.
