Creative Youth Community Impact
About On and On | Singer and songwriter Jordan Meyer (an Enfield native) of Sound Haven Music and Music Therapist Renee Coro teamed up to provide a Youth Songwriting Course to Enfield youth through our Child, Youth and Family Services Division. Enfield youth Gracie Rose, Cameron Regnier, and Isabela Rodriguez- Gil wrote and recorded an original song from start to finish. The song, titled “On and On”, was inspired by their desire to create a song about perseverance in challenging times.
