Ned Albright and I co-wrote this piece as a protest song, but we’ve agreed to re-purpose it as a tool to get out the vote for the 2024 U.S. election. We're joined on the vocals, and in the video, by Teresa James and Gia Ciambotti. The band is Dean Parks (gtr), Jim Cox (org), Leland Sklar (bss), Herman Matthews (drms) and Ned and I (perc).
