Sing Out The Vote & MVP (Movement Voter Project)

Sing Out the Vote: Peter Blood and Annie Patterson

In an effort to support MVP (Movement Voter Project), Annie Patterson & Peter Blood of RiseUpAndSing.org organized 5 on-line benefit concerts to raise funds, consciousness, & energy to Sing Out The Vote. Focusing their concerts on particular "battleground" states & regions, they educated about the issues & organizations involved in the upcoming election, combining edification for the minds & electrifying for the spirits of their listeners. Some of the 5 concerts included music by Si Kahn of FolkVOTE, Pat & Sandy of Emma's Revolution, and Reggie Harris, enriched by commentary from Ann Nugent (Massachusetts organizer with MVP), and LaTosha Brown co-founder of Black Voters Matter.

All the songs in this program, except the last, are performed by Annie Patterson & Peter Blood of RiseUpAndSing.org as part of their 9/25/20 Sing Out The Vote concert, and the songwriter is noted with each song:
