Dr Nat and her musicians cover the song “White Winter Hymnal” by Fleet Foxes, an American indie-folk band. The song was chosen for its simplicity and repetitive elements. This rendition is inspired by a capella group Pentatonix’s cover of the song that used body percussion in its arrangement. We don’t always need instruments to make music, our bodies and voices are perfect for that too! This episode features an interview with our multi-ethnic percussionist-drummer, Govin.
