MUSH always sits in the dappled shade of a willow. JAY, a migrating bird, descends from the tree’s crown like he’s always been part of its branches. He tells MUSH he’s been seeing ghosts, and the ghosts told him there’s a factory on the other side of the ocean where employees receive “horns.” The complementary horn intrigues MUSH, but she is reluctant to leave because she feels the need to stay with the tree. One day, a woman arrives on the island, smoking a cigarette. She brings in a construction team and informs MUSH that they will cut the tree down for the construction work.

What will become of MUSH and JAY and the tree? What does it mean to stop seeing the ghosts in life? Hop on this canoe with us to sing the ballad about mom and kids on the river of growth, loss, and memory.
