Get the buttons here!The USA Singers: Crafting Protest Anthems on The Lighter Side with Jay
Let's pour another shot, so we don't talk about his debt. You know, I think we all listen to tunes that we fucking love when we're feeling worn out and by the end of the song we're back to where we were.
Ever heard of a band that melts faces while advocating for change? Meet The USA Singers, a group of virtuoso musicians turning their talents into powerful protest anthems. In this episode of 'The Lighter Side with Jay', host Jay Casale chats with Rutherford P. Hayes and Frankie D. Roosevelvet, two founding members of the band. These guys aren't just making music; they're making statements with tracks like 'Bigly Hands', 'Border Wall', and 'Kavanaugh'.
The conversation dives into how the band uses their music to inspire change and challenge the status quo. Jay and the band discuss the role of musicianship in protest, the importance of songwriting, and how their tunes resonate in today's political climate. But it’s not all about the music; they also touch on broader topics like the impact of COVID-19, the significance of mail-in voting, and even the spiritual side of psychedelics.
Listeners will get an inside look at the band's creative process and hear about their latest project, 'The Orange Album', a 16-track collection that's as thought-provoking as it is catchy. Whether you're a music lover, a protest enthusiast, or someone navigating mental health challenges, this episode offers something for everyone. Tune in to hear how The USA Singers are using their art to make a difference, one song at a time.
Their blend of humor, activism, and top-notch musicianship makes this episode a must-listen.
