A service where musicians are not just part of fast-paced entertainment world\, but instead influence the cultural shift as troubadours\, activists\, story tellers\, and catalysts of justice\,” explains Leah.  \nWe have been working alongside incredible leaders and organizations including Winona LaDuke\, Joanna Macey\, Climbing Poetree\, Gulf Restoration Network\, the Permaculture Action Network\, the Prison Yoga Project\, and 1 Billion Rising (along with many more on-the ground efforts) to bring you more direct action and involvement throughout our concerts\, and to help maintain an independent musical spirit in the face of such a fast-paced world.
