This episode, I catch up with Charlie MGee in my lounge room to chat about his latest album, Microbiome , and his journey into permaculture songwriting! Charlie is not only an amazing permaculturalist, but also a pedagogic creative, educator award winning, songwriter extraordinaire, and a genius of sharing permaculture with the world through his music - both as a solo artist and with his band, the Formidable Vegetable Sound System . My family has been listening to Charlie's songs for years - if you haven't heard his permaculture/dance mix/jazz/funk style yet, I highly recommend you check out his tunes! As well as performing at major music festivals around the world, Charlie has collaborated with a range of Australian musicians like Family Shoveller Band (as mentioned in the episode). Check out his fantastic TEDx talk and follow along on Youtube and Instagram . You can support Charlie and his band on Patreon or join their mailing list ! I'd love to hear from you. Text me here.
