Hosting this week's episode, on the theme of songwriting as therapy during coronavirus is Morgan Johnston. Hailing from Rhode Island, Johnston is an indie-folk singer-songwriter stomping, strumming, speaking, and singing her way to empowering both herself and her listeners. Her guitar and vocal arrangements are inspired by the natural landscape of places as much as by the emotional landscape of human experiences. As a board-certified music therapist, she is constantly reminded of the healing power of the music that she aims to share.

Songs featured in this episode include:

1) Pandemic Spring

2) Days of Quarantine

3) Disorientation

4) The Things That I Hope We Keep After Quarantine

5) Six Months In

6) I'm Worried

7) To Just Be
