Let's get together and sing!

We've been singing with various local community song circle groups for a while, Marv Zauderer's group down in Marin, Janice Hardy's group here in Petaluma with Janice Hardy (I've been collecting those songs here).

I mentioned that Marv's hosting Riomas was super powerful, and we came home and immediately pre-ordered Gather Your Resilience: Medicine for Liberation by Riomas.

We've seen this movement blossom with the media coverage of the singing resistance in Minneapolis, there's gonna be a lot of song at the next No Kings rally, and seems like in a lot of other places.

Anyway, as awesome as it is to have all of this modern music flowing through song leaders, it's useful to keep track of the history: Elaine Kolb's 1981 Let's Get Together has been published, with her agreement, on Archive.org.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
