The Girls Rock Camp Foundation are looking to raise money for their grant drive by selling prints of re-imagined album covers starring Girls Rock campers. Below, check out the Record Remake Project artwork where the campers stand in for David Bowie, Kendrick Lamar, Blondie, Janelle Monáe, Haim, Perfume Genius, U2, and Katy Perry.
The cover star of Blondie's Parallel Lines is a 9-year-old named Ava. She's the niece of Gossip's Beth Ditto, who's a a member of GRCF's advisory board. Ditto spoke about the project in a statement:
Rock Camp is really close to my heart. I coached at Camp for several summers and it was so cool to watch girls find their voices...to play singers for them like Nina Hagen, Cibo Matto, Ma Rainey, Yoko Ono, opening up the idea of what ‘singing’ is and what kinds of voices are beautiful. I loved getting to share Camp with Ava, and seeing her transformed into a tiny scowling Debbie Harry was unbelievable! Baby's first wig cap!
The photos were shot by Carli Davidson, Holly Andres, Shelby Duncan, and Melanie Aron.
GRCF is a non-profit that supports over 45 Girls Rock Camps in the U.S.
