Embracing Inspiration in Unexpected Places - Meet Musician Ross Thorn

Aug 11, 2025

Minnesota singer-songwriter Ross Thorn has released Songs of Protest, Songs of Love, a new EP with all proceeds benefiting Save the Boundary Waters. The collection is both a call to action and a celebration of what’s possible when we come together to protect our public lands.

Another world is possible, and it starts with us. Listen now at rossthorn.bandcamp.com.
