All Genres > Folk > Angry > DAVID ROVICS: Behind the Barricades: The Best of David Rovics

In David's Words:
"I'm a songwriter. Most descriptions would hasten to add, a political one, since anyone who writes about something other than their navel these days is generally considered political. I believe music can be more than an escape. It can be a tool for selling products on the one hand, or part of the stockpile of ammunition necessary to build and maintain a socail movement. Since the mid-90's I've been spending most of my time on tour, playing concerts around the US, Canada and various countries in Europe. Often for dozens, fairly often for hundreds, and a few times for many thousands, at rallies and protests."

David has shared the stage in recent years with many fine activists including Amy Goodman, Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky, Ralph Nader, Cynthia McKinney, Angela Davis, Michael Moore, Susan Sarandon, Ward Churchill, Jello Biafra, Pete Seeger, Billy Bragg and many others.
