From New York City, we exist to serve the efforts of progressive and radical groups and causes, playing for events that support feminism and women’s rights, the queer community, labor, the environment, social and economic justice, peace and community self-determination. We pledge to fight racism, sexism, homophobia, war and violence in all its forms, striving to bring joy and inspiration to these communities and to bring new people into radical causes. Through our music, we pay tribute to the world’s cultures and the revolutionary role music has played throughout history.
