An Afternoon of Music for Social Change with Tom Nielson - Madison
Madison, WI
Sponsored by the Four Lakes Group Sierra Club - www.4lakes.org.
Known locally as the Bard Insurgent, Tom is a veteran of stage and street theater with his writing, acting, and directing. His music reflects his involvement with heroin addicts, the poor, human rights, safe energy, and liberation movements from Nicaragua to Eritrea. His original works, parodies of popular tunes, well known freedom songs, and poetry draw the listener into his musical response to globalization. Tom is the winner of multiple awards for his music and writing, most recently in 2011 the IMA People's Choice Song of the Year for Social Action, IFA War & Politics, and a Finalist, Music for the Earth. Plan to join us for this rare treat to see a great music talent in action.
All proceeds go towards mining activism by Sierra Club and the Wisconsin Mining Impact Coalition, so you can choose your level of support. All tickets are general admission, $10 is the base ticket price, but please feel free to pay what you can to support our work. Tickets will also be available at the door - CASH ONLY - the day of the event. Thank you!
