The Art of Bridging is a podcast from the Distant Voices project. Over the last four years, we‘ve been bringing people together to write songs in and around the Scottish criminal justice system. We set out to learn more about what it‘s like to come home after prison, and to try to build bridges through songwriting and creative practice. In the Art of Bridging, the community of people around Distant Voices - all of whom are connected to the criminal justice system in different ways - share some of what we‘ve made and learned along the way. Whether you‘re a music-lover, a community organiser or a system changer, we hope you‘ll enjoy this mix of thought-provoking conversations and compelling, challenging and beautiful tunes. Distant Voices is a collaboration between arts organisation Vox Liminis, the University of Glasgow, the University of Edinburgh, and the University of the West of Scotland, funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (Award No: ES/P002536/1)

In Episode 3, Lucy is joined by Sharon, Oliver and Colleen from the Distant Voices community, to share songs and stories from a project that took us to Inverness to work with local communities on themes of addiction and recovery. We'll reflect on identity, inequality, fear and hope, with songs featuring co-writers Gus Bear, Donna Maciocia, Ross Clark (Fiskur), Gabi Froden (Foreign Slippers / Fires of May), and Martin, as well as insights from guest listeners William, Jim and Rachel. We'll glimpse cherry blossom, white-tipped waves and new beginnings, as we try to figure out how to build bridges with solid foundations.
