Artists Support Wisconsin Workers

Long-time union supporter Steve Earle is releasing a two-track digital single whose profits will go to America Votes Labor Unity Fund through SaveWorkers.org (American Songwriter), and Mountain Goats frontman, John Darnielle posted a video of himself covering Joe Hill's "There Is Power in a Union." He says, "Everybody knows I don’t generally do the acoustic guitar guy rocking political jams deal but as a former member of SEIU 660 & the California Association of Psychiatric Technicians & a kid who benefitted from great teachers I wanted to spend tonight saying WE ARE ON YOUR SIDE.” (KEXP)
