David Rovics has been called the musical voice of the progressive movement in the U.S. He and his songs are featured on national radio programs and he tours regularly around the world. Rovics’ own political statements touch on a variety of topics including labor history, the “War on Terror” and gender relations. Many of his songs are also inspired by the hundreds of cities he’s visited, from no-name small-towns in the USA, to the occupied Palestinian territories. He has 10 releases. His 2008 release, The Commons, includes: “Halliburton Boardroom Massacre,” “Who Would Jesus Bomb?” and “Falluja.” Most importantly, he's really good. He will make you laugh, he will make you cry, he will make the revolution irresistible. Sponsored by the Resource Center for Nonviolence. For more info: 831-423-1626x101 or http://www.rcnv.org
