63: Jeff Campbell, “A Tribe Called Crush”

Today's story comes from Jeff Campbell and was recorded live at our fifth anniversary show on March 18, 2015. The theme of the evening was "Symbiotes" and his story was entitled "A Tribe Called Crush."

Jeff Campbell has been a part of Denver’s creative community for over two decades, as a pioneering Hip Hop and spoken word artist, as well as facilitator of arts-in-education programs for Colorado’s youth in public schools. Jeff recently wrote and performed his first play, a one man show entitled “Who Killed Jigaboo Jones?” a One Man Mockumentary on the Hip Hop Industrial Complex. He also performed with The Narrators—and a bunch of puppets!—as part of a special collaboration with Off-Center at The Jones in 2014.

Special thanks to Josh Johnson with engineering help on this episode. Our theme music is by our friend Whalehawk (aka the Grammy-nominated musician Jake Sanders).
