'Bayou City Comeback Chorus' is a social justice album and short film featuring the voices and musicianship of many different artists from around the Houston area. The music is influenced by psychedelic funk, gospel, and jazz. It was written with the intent to connect and inspire.

In early 2020, singer/producer Kam Franklin hosted a public jam to connect local artists and audition vocalists and musicians for the initial version of the project (a live record featuring a choir made up of marginalized voices from around the community). She did this not knowing it would her final public event and opportunity to do so due to Covid shutting everything down. This documentary follows the year following the initial jam session. Each vocal part and instrument was recorded in lockdown over the course of almost a year.

The final project will be a short film that showcases that initial jam session, the struggle to
record the record in quarantine, interviews with some of the singers and contributors to the record and the final result of all that hard work, despite the many obstacles.

The album features appearances from Dende, Uncle Tino, Sugar Joiko, Lilly Aviana, Z'maji, Nick Connors, Ryan Ramirez. It was mastered by Chris Longwood (Khruangbin) and mixed by Raymond Auzenne (Mannie Fresh), and edited by Nick Zamora (The Suffers). All songs were written, arranged and produced by Kam Franklin.

This project was partially funded by the Houston Arts Alliance.
