“Unleashing the power of music in service of the planet”
For the fifth year, EarthPercent Hour will welcome some very special guests and luminaries to the stage at GEI18.
Multi-award-winning singer-songwriters Anna Calvi and David Gray join the highly anticipated EarthPercent Hour, hosted by Cathy Runciman, Co-Executive Director of the charity founded by Brian Eno. Together they discuss musical journeys, inspiration and community, and planetary care.
EarthPercent Hour is always the icing on the plant-based cake of GEI’s programme with previous guests including Brian Eno, Jarvis Cocker, Moby, Aurora, Jacob Collier, and Declan McKenna.
EarthPercent invites artists and the music industry at large to donate a small percentage of their income, making change through organisations that meaningfully address the climate and nature crises. We invite all of our readers to support the great work of this charity, too.
