200 YEARS ERIE CANAL CELEBRATION Music video

 Enjoy “200 Years” - Erie Canal Celebration Music Video, an original song commemorating the Bicentennial of the Erie Canal  which opened in 1825, connecting the Lake Erie and the Great Lakes to New York Harbor.  The historic Erie Canal was, and still is today, an economic catalyst for upstate New York and a corridor for commerce, immigration and the movement of people, cultures and ideas to the Midwest and across the Nation. 

An interview with musician Mike Gladstone on “200 Years” - E

Mike Gladstone describes the inspiration for music video celebrating the 200th anniversary of the opening of the Erie Canal, from composing the song to bringing the band together for this special musical tribute.
