40 Story Radio Tower Episode 8

40 Story Radio Tower is an artist-led audio and visual focused production company that runs at life through playscripts, storytelling, fiction, poetry, music and more. We started as a monthly stage show performed for a live audience then releasing it as a podcast. Now, we’ve evolved into a story-led artist-focused production company with multiple shows from serialized shorts to long-form dramas with a mission to provide a platform for creators to express themselves.

We invite you to immerse yourself in a story. Turn down the lights, focus on the sound and lose yourself for a time.

This story, Tribe, was written and recorded by Joe Ferron Hiatt in collaboration with musician Rob Landoll. We have been writing these pieces using the form from the live shows of crossing spoken word with original music and sharing the creation.
