ABOUT

A 2017 adaptation of poems from Robin Richardson’s Trillium Award-Winning collection of poems Sit How You Want into song by composer Andrew Staniland. The project has since grown into a remix now called Reddened by Hammer (one of the poem titles) and is available on numerous streaming platforms.

Robin Richardson attended the premier at the Old Stone Hours of Brooklyn to answer questions about the process. Her favourite of Andrew’s adaptations is Go By Contraries, a poem she titled after Robert frost, and which Andrew tapped into with an impeccable ear.
