Keith Mullins and Basinview Choir – Quarantine Song & Video:
“Stronger Together”
Baddeck, NS – As we all struggle to adapt and change to these difficult times, multiple award-winning songwriter, Keith Mullins has penned a new tune called
“Stronger Together”, which immediately became part of a national ad campaign for The
Desjardins Group. Teaming up with talented east coast musicians; Jason Mingo,
Meaghan Smith, Chris Kirby, Kev Corbett, Colin Grant, they created a full band version. Then adding Carol Coutts and The Basinview Choir, it made for a powerful and moving video created by videographer Matthew Ingraham. We give you “Stronger Together”. Over 40 student and musician video submissions from their homes creating the largest east coast socially distant band ever. These difficult times will hold us back, but never stop us from doing what we are all so passionate about!
