Talk about dropping bars behind bars.
Inmates at the Grand Valley Institution for Women in Kitchener have released a 10-song music album, called “Undisclosed Location.”
It’s the first album written and recorded at a federal women’s prison in Canada and part of the Pros and Cons Program.
Founder of the program Hugh Christopher Brown tells 570 NEWS it all started by bringing music workshops into prisons, and it became popular in a men’s prison outside Kingston.
