When we gather together, we can bring about the change we want to see in our world. That’s why we assembled a diverse group of volunteers from Bernie’s campaign to write songs about the movement: an album of his volunteers, for his volunteers, by his volunteers. Songs for Bernie mirrors Bernie himself in some small way: he’s an issue-oriented candidate, ours is an issue-oriented album; he brings together diverse people fighting for the same cause, we brought together diverse songwriters fighting for the same cause. We wanted a new kind of protest album for a new kind of protest: a protest for love’s sake, for peace’s sake, for pity’s sake.

The songs on Songs for Bernie come to us from the voices of Arabs and the sons of Irish immigrants, from rappers and folk singers, from the moans of the dirge and the shouts of the jubilee. All of them are here to help inspire the movement and the movement’s here for you.

Tips will be reinvested laterally into future projects. Emails will be passed onto Bernie 2016.

Cheers.
