Whether you lean left or right, the alignment of music and politics has always been extremely important, especially in Punk Rock. In this week's episode, Kevin catches up with 3 of his friends who have done more than their fair share of creating change by reminding people that they can use their voice to make a difference too.
HeadCount and #iIVoted are the two largest organizations in America that encourage voting to people attending live concerts. You’ve probably been to a concert or festival (such as the Warped Tour) and been asked to register to vote by some HeadCount volunteers, and you couldn’t have missed the new and recurring #IVoted virtual festivals with artists like Billie Eilish, Taking Back Sunday, and more.
Kevin also interviews the incredible Supla. A Brazilian artist and entertainer whose family helped found the labor party in Brazil. Supla talks about his discovery of punk rock and how it inspired him to create his own style of music, “Bossanova”, to use his voice for good.
