Brighid Fry has grown up in the climate movement.
A constant presence by the side of her mother Kim Fry, who worked for Greenpeace and other climate activist groups, she’s been going to climate protests since she was a baby.
“I remember being three or four and people would ask me ‘Are you going to be a climate activist like your mom?’ And I’d be like, ‘No, I’m going to become a famous rock star. And then when I speak about climate stuff, people will listen’,” the 18-year-old musician recalls. Fry plays in the Toronto folk-rock duo Moscow Apartment with Pascale Padilla.

One of the most iconic album sleeve designs of all time has been given a fresh twist to draw attention to the climate change emergency.
The original design of radio waves which adorned Joy Division s Unknown Pleasures is a hugely popular t-shirt amongst music fans, and now charity organisation Music Declares Emergency has asked its designer, Peter Saville, to modify it for a T-shirt for their No Music On A Dead Planet campaign.
The new design takes inspiration from the Salford band’s 1979 record cover, but flattens the waveform to powerfully represent, the eternal silence of a dead planet .
