The Brick City Anthem is the result of 2 years of community engagement, writing, recording, 3 performances, and an upcoming music video! It is an epic theme song representing the power of this dynamic city, created entirely by born-and-raised and long-time residents of Newark. Newark in Tune is the first major project of Our Sound (Previously Collaborate Audio Lab), an organization that aims to engage our urban community through exciting programs that tap in to the incredible power of sound and music to bring people together.
