Jo Andersen and John Coinman collaborated with photographer Michael Hyatt for this video. For many years Michael has been a volunteer for Samaritans, a humanitarian aid group dedicated to saving the lives of migrants crossing the Sonoran Desert. His photographs document their journey. The photographs included here are from his recent book Along The Migrant Trail. Jo and John filmed this video with an iPhone and a GoPro. Long Way From Home is from my 2019 album Under The Sun.
