Singer-songwriter Rain Perry lost her music studio and contents in the 2017 Thomas Fire that burned over 280,000 acres in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties. Rain lives in Ojai and was fortunate that her home was not destroyed. Many of her neighbors lost their homes to the Thomas Fire. Rain has recently released a video of a song that she wrote, Vapor, filmed at the ruins of the historic Amestoy House in Upper Ojai. One of Rain's representative's contacted me because I write a blog focusing on wildland firefighting asking me if I would share the video with you. I listened to her video featuring at least 12 friends and neighbors who lost their homes and or studios. Each of the dozen people you will see in the video have an object from their burned homes. I found the video to be very moving and thought that some of you would like to see her video. Vapor is but one of the songs on her new album, Let's be Brave. The proceeds of the April 27th celebration of the release of Let's Be Brave held in Ojai CA will benefit the California Community Foundation Wildfire Release Fund. Bill Gabbert of Wildfire Today wrote about Rain Perry and her Let's Be Brave album on April 23rd.
