My new single, “Boxcars in the Sky”, is now available for download at Bandcamp.
This song was inspired by the work of “Witness at the Border”. Their witnessing began at the Tornillo detention center for migrant children in 2018. Their goal is to not allow the atrocities happening in our country to go unseen. Their work continues today, tracking ICE flights and bearing witness to in immigration court and on the streets. We all must use our voice and not stand silent as these injustices are happening in our country.
Song credits: John Lester - vocals, upright bass, 6 string tremolo bass guitar. Paul Tiernan - guitars and background vocals. Celso Alberti - drums. Mastered by 5-time grammy winner Michael Romanowski. Artwork by political activist Jesse Duquette.
