Florian Arbenz Dave Douglas is definitely one of my favourite musicians out there. He's not only an amazing trumpet player but also a great bandleader who always surprises by featuring young cats. Great!! Favorite track: Safe Space.

John Cratchley Resilient music...created to reinforce our resistance to falsehood and charlatanism...a rallying cry...it needs to be listened to: outstanding.

Loris Scirea Very interesting new group. I enjoyed it a lot. Awsome.

MARCHING MUSIC
Marching Virtually | Voting Actively

Here’s a new suite of compositions for our moment. I conceived of these pieces as music you could have in your headphones when you attend Climate Marches, Demonstrations for Equal Rights, Voting Rights Movements, and all other actions towards a just society. Also, it’s music to spur all of us to go and vote in November 2020 in incontrovertible numbers. Non-voters are among the biggest voting blocs in the U.S. This is the moment when everyone has to step up an be a part of what our nation truly is. We can do it. May this music help and inspire you. I am optimistic and believe that we can make change, but we have to all be involved and engaged.

We are grateful to these organizations (and many others!) for their hard work on the issues. Support them if you can:

Sunrise Movement, Fair Fight Action, Brennan Center For Justice, NAACP Legal Defense Fund, International Rescue Committee, ACLU, Planned Parenthood, Black Voters Matter Fund, American Friends Service Committee.

And don’t forget to get out the vote and vote yourself, while taking others to the polls! Work with the candidates, local and national, that you agree with.

Dave
