Jack Johnson’s Green Studio
Environmental awareness was a big topic on Jack Johnson’s world tour last year. It’s truly great how much effort he’s putting into educating people about these topics. Some new videos about what his Kokua Foundation does were just posted on Sundance Channel website.
This year there won’t be a Kokua Festival, and it looks like Jack won’t be performing live much at all this year. That’s completely understandable given the time he spent on the road last year. I hope they’ll release a DVD of the material shot during last year’s tour. I really like his 2005 DVD release A Weekend At The Greek & Live In Japan, which was what finally got me into his music.
One cool thing is Brushfire Record’s solar powered studio in Los Angeles. That’s where Jack’s latest studio album Sleep Through the Static was recorded. This is G. Love giving a tour around the house.
