Americans for Prosperity single is out August 28th
In anticipation of my 13th (!) solo album, Good Grief, out September 25th, and considering the current political zeitgeist, comes this timely standalone single.
“Americans for Prosperity” is narrated from the dual perspectives
of the put-upon citizen-worker, trying to keep their head above water
and fighting for monetary scraps in the “trickle-dumb economy,”
and bosses-followers of the Koch Brothers' “zero sum” ideology. "AFP" was recorded last summer with backing from George Friend (guitar), Lance Helgeson (drums), Dann Morr (bass), and Amy Russell (backing vocals), and it will be available as a digital download August 28th via iTunes, Bandcamp, Amazon, et al.
The official release event is here. Hope you enjoy!
