Minneapolis singer-songwriter Chastity Brown is the featured artist on the second episode of Dissonance Sessions, our new video series that is part therapy session, part recording session. Chastity discusses her musical roots, surviving the isolation of the pandemic, witnessing the global racial reckoning that manifested itself mere blocks from her home, and embracing hope, connection and love even amid sorrow. She also performs songs from her amazing new album, Sing to the Walls.
