Green Is The New Black is something special – a new, impact documentary film that follows the story of a band confronting their environmental impact, and, crucially, doing something about it. 

The band are the Australian metalcore outfit In Hearts Wake, and this time on the podcast we're joining by the band's vocalist and director of the movie, Jake Taylor. Green Is The New Black follows their journey to make a carbon neutral album. 

Jake joins hosts Fay Milton and Greg Cochrane to walk about why the band wanted to share their story, the challenges of "carbon neutral recording" and the inspiring signals the documentary can send to the broader music community. 

Before we sign off, Fay and Greg will also leave you with some recommendations [details below].
