Songs from Death Row

About Me

Lyrics written by death row prisoner Gene Hathorn.

Music played, sung and composed by Kenneth Thordal.

Lyricist Gene Wilford Hathorn will probably never be able to hear these songs. He's been on death row since 1985. The last 15 years in total isolation - like all other Texan death row prisoners.

Kenneth says: "Even though Gene is guilty of a terrible crime he's still a human being with hopes, fears and longings. I hope that comes across in the songs and in the video."

Sara Koppel's video below is based on Gene's original drawings and Marco Evaristti's paintings.
