A word from JaBig: I watched this film at a film festival in Aspen, Colorado where the short documentary about my bicycle journey across Canada was also screened.
Lifeboat shook me to core as I could have been easily one of those refugees if I were not born in far privileged circumstances.
As you may have noticed, I raise awareness and funds for World Food Programme, an agency that feeds refugees as one of its mandate.
Skye Fitzgerald, the film director, has become a friend as 2018 has gone by and I told him that the film had beautiful music and that I wanted to share it with my fans. He put me in touch with composer William Campbell and here we are!

Album Notes:
The documentary film LIFEBOAT showcases refugees desperate enough to risk their lives in rubber boats leaving Libya in the middle of the night, despite a high probability of drowning. With few resources but certain that civil society must intervene, volunteers from a German non-profit risk the waves of the Mediterranean to pluck refugees from sinking rafts.
