Workers on the Rise! Seattle Labor Chorus Concert Fundraiser.....In-Person and Live Streamed

Workers on the Rise! Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

In the glorious, centuries-old tradition of labor movement music, the Seattle Labor Chorus offers a concert with inspirational songs of workers struggling to bring about social, economic, racial, and environmental justice. Help us celebrate 25 years of being a musical voice of labor and make the work of SLC possible into the next 25 years!

ONLINE TICKETS STILL AVAILABLE

Our guest performers are Jim Page and Talison Crosby! 

Jim Page sings of politics and romance, adventure and comedy, tragedy, history, and meditations on life, death and the absurd. His improvisations are legendary, and if there’s anything to talk about that he hasn’t sung about it’s just that he was too busy singing about something else. More info be found here, https://jimpage.net. We are thrilled to share a stage with him.

Talison Crosby is an organizer of the unorganized. After over a decade of grinding in the food & beverage industry, they eventually said enough is enough and started fighting back in a field that's been notoriously hostile to labor struggles. In addition to organizing full-time with Unite Here Local 8, they also bring their musical and songwriting skills to the movement. They became the Union Bard after finding the local music scene to be shallow and overrun by narcissists. Movement music is much less self-serving, and much more sincere. With theory and practice, megaphone and guitar, they are a tireless cultural warrior in the fight for the liberation of all workers.

If you wish to donate to the Seattle Labor Chorus and do not want a ticket, please DONATE HERE.  

The Seattle Labor Chorus is a non-profit, membership organization. All singers pay dues and contribute in other ways as well. Annual donations from unions and other labor organizations also enable us to support workers’ struggles at picket lines and rallies. Financial support from our fans and supporters in the community is essential to cover expenses so we can keep singing for justice, safety, peace, and power for all working people.

This event is supported in part by the Abe Keller Peace Education Fund.

"The Seattle Labor Chorus is reawakening the labor movements’ recognition that we express our better
selves through music and song; that we organize better through music and song;
and that singing is damn fun!”
-Jeff Johnson, former President, Washington State Labor Council
