For the Louisville Music COVIDiary, we have the video "Climate Change Refugees" by the band Ocifer. We received the entry from Chris deRome, vocalist for the band and also co-owner of the Louisville restaurant Ostra which has been closed due to the Covid pandemic. At this time, the restaurant will not be reopening in brick and mortar form, unfortunately, however catering will continue for now. Chris says:
"I continue to write poetry, sing songs, plant vegetables, and with my wife who is the owner of Cannonball Swimwear, been making masks."

Welcome to The Louisville Music COVIDiary, a web series that highlights our City’s amazing and talented musicians as they deal with the effects of the COVID19 Pandemic. Because of the forced closure of our music venues and other places for artists to perform, many musicians are left without much needed income and disconnected from their audiences and each other. In this series, we have asked musicians to send us their homemade music videos as a way to stay connected in this strange and uncertain time.
If you'd like to participate please upload your video to Youtube then send the link to Laura Shine at lshine@wfpk.org.
