I MADE AMERICA's 'Thomas Jefferson' Releases EP
Thomas Jefferson releases first EP "Songs From Monticello," as part of transmedia project "I Made America."
Thomas Jefferson leaves his political past behind and embarks on a music career. His first recordings focus on this new journey in 2012 Chicago, featuring titles "A Matter of Time," "Life In Forward Times," "We're All In the Dark" and "Partying Tonight."
"I Made America" uses music, weekly webisodes, social media and live Chicago appearances to tell one story. Six Founding Fathers of the United States of America were kidnapped from the 18th Century and brought to 2012 to be used as props in the upcoming election. Upon discovering that these statesmen hold drastically different political views than any modern day candidate, their kidnappers cut off all ties, leaving them stranded in present day Chicago. Former celebrities Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton and James Madison struggle to make money, find love and regain their dignity.
"Music is a more powerful avenue for change than government. Thus, I have embarked on a musician's path in this new age," says Thomas Jefferson.
