New Song by Last Chance Celebrates Biden/Harris Victory
“When the World Changed” is a new original song recorded by Last Chance, the musical duo of Swarthmore resident Ingrid Rosenback and Jack Scott of Wallingford. “We were thrilled by the Biden/Harris victory, and we wanted to express that joy in our song,” Rosenback says. “We’re hoping Joe and Kamala will get to hear it.” Last Chance’s most recent album is “Summer Again.” Their songs have played locally on Philadelphia’s WXPN and on college and community stations in states from New England to California. Watch the duo perform the song in Rosenback’s yard.
