Milwaukee Rep showcases local music artists supporting COVID vaccine efforts in new videos

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Milwaukee Rep on Friday, April 23, released four music videos from local artists supporting COVID vaccination efforts. 

According to a news release, together with community partner Kiran Vedula, the videos are part of Milwaukee Rep’s Community Engagement Neighborhood programming to encourage the community to seek more information about COVID-19 vaccines. The videos feature four original songs by Milwaukee residents including “Prime Time” by Dayzhane Anderson, “Find A Way” by Donna Re’nee, “Hold On” by Marcya Daneille, and “My Shot” by NilexNile.

“About half of Wisconsinites 16 and older have received at least one dose of a vaccine, that is very encouraging, but we still have a long way to go,” said Artistic Director Mark Clements. “I’m inspired by watching these thoughtful and personal appeals from our own Milwaukee artists. It’s my hope that they will support the city’s vaccination efforts so we can all stay safe and return to some sense of normalcy.”

The videos were created by Kiran Vedula and Cody Laplant.
