On The Table Read, the “Best Entertainment Celebrity Magazine in the UK“, award-winning musician Wes Charlton creates new music brand, The Future Brigade, to teach children about the importance of recycling.
Just in time for Earth Day (April 22), new kids musical sensation The Future Brigade will release their first single, “R.E.C.Y.C.L.E. (Do It Right!)” (Vox Records; ISRC: NO3CF2203010).
R.E.C.Y.C.L.E
The brainchild of Virginia-based singer/songwriter Wes Charlton, “R.E.C.Y.C.L.E.” encourages kids to explore the importance of recycling—while enjoying a banger of a dance tune! The hook has kids spelling the word “recycle,” and the three verses address the three “Rs” of recycling: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
To promote Earth Day education on digital platforms, The Future Brigade will feature the online premiere of the “R.E.C.Y.C.L.E. (Do It Right!)” single, available wherever music is streamed, as well as their social media.
The Future Brigade
Whether it’s in the car, at home, outside, watching TV or a movie, or even in the classroom, parents and kids need great music to jam to, both on their own and especially as a family. The Future Brigade makes education hip and fun through songs that help kids understand that positive change starts at home with them, with each individual making their own choices each day (not just on Earth Day), and how those little acts/choices can change the world for the better if we all participate.
The Future Brigade delivers hip music for all generations to enjoy. Their mission is for listeners and their kids to press play together, grin uncontrollably, and start dancing to the beat—and maybe even learn something cool and educational along the way!
The Future Brigade does this by combining genre styles and musical “nods” or references to all types of pop culture, entertainment and education in a smart, intentional and integrated way so that generations of kids and adults can react positively, enjoy and frankly freak out together to the same hits.
