Welcome to BE HEARD!
BE HEARD! began as a revolutionary concept created by Chris Tribble, owner of Versatile Productions, Inc. and founder of BE HEARD! The concept allows youth to speak their minds about issues and express opinions that are rarely considered by adults. Our mission is to let the youth BE HEARD! without adult intervention. Since its inception, BE HEARD! has evolved. Through a partnership with the True Media Foundation, BE HEARD! is now on tour and is produced entirely by youth. With the involvement and mentorship of the True Media Foundation, kids have the opportunity to learn about every aspect of broadcast video production while letting their voices BE HEARD! From shooting to hosting on camera, or being audio technicians or editors, these kids do it all.

The Stories Behind the Songs
The Wheeler Opera House and John Oates, along with Jazz Aspen Snowmass, present a three-concert singer/songwriter series this winter at the Wheeler featuring musicians Patti Griffin, Tift Merritt, and Jimmy Wayne. John Oates and each performer are joined by a second noted professional songwriter, for each ninety-minute performance. The performances offer a unique combination of music and conversation in an intimate program exposing audiences to the magic (and humor!) of the songwriting process.
In addition, young aspiring songwriters who have been working with Oates in the Roaring Fork Valley Schools present their music at each performance. BE HEARD! Brings these young students' performances to you right here on BE HEARD! TV.
