THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND PROJECT mission statement:

The THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND PROJECT is an interactive documentary to record us all singing Woody Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land."

Please record your cover by May 15, 2013, to be included in a video-mosaic ("mash-up") of the "This Land" song that'll stream on PBS.ORG.

The project is produced by American Masters/THIRTEEN in New York. It's in support of the Woody Guthrie centennial, which is the basis for the project and partnership with the Woody Guthrie Foundation and Archives as they have been hosting Woody 100 events, concerts, and programs throughout the past year.

In addition to the final compilation video, the website's focus will be the crowdsourced "This Land Is Your Land" songs: a place to experience as well as catalog for the historical record a diverse collection of a song that's a part of our national canon, reflective of our American way of life.

Giving this its own thread rather than posting only on the "Woody at 100" thread so 'Catters can let us know here when they've made their recording. :-)

Might be a good idea to suggest a key.
