    Back to the Roots: Featuring Evan Greer and spiritchild:
    “Songs [that] will be heard at the barricades for years to come.” – Tom Morello.
    “An eloquent and energetic writer.” – Howard Zinn
    “My current fave hiphop ensemble. Unique sound, fully evolved, party perfect and definitely hip.” – Bowery Poetry Club

    Jon Fromer:
    “Gonna Take Us All is a great record! I hope many people start singing your songs.” - Pete Seeger
    “The soulful-est man in activist song!” - Pat Humphries & Sandy O (Emma’s Revolution)
    “When Jon Fromer took the microphone the whole scene was transformed. His gift is to bring ordinary people together and make them move. It starts with his right hand, which hammers the guitar strings with ferocious commitment and reverberates down to his feet, which tramp in place like an army of one - justice bound.”  - Eric Wolfe, The Reporter
