Working Class Heroes is a collection of American working-class, pre–World War II folk songs revived by author and musician Mat Callahan & musician and political archivist Yvonne Moore. Here the duo presents 20 songs written both by folk canon heavyweights and lesser known but equally gifted songwriters. Mat and Yvonne will sing songs from the album and discuss the accompanying book with stories of the women and men who (sometimes literally) gave their lives to emancipate the working class. We'll also celebrate the Winter Solstice and the coming of the light!

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
