Known for fearless, truth-telling lyrics and melodies you can’t resist singing, Emma's Revolution is the award-winning activist duo of Pat Humphries & Sandy O. Now in their 20th year, the duo writes songs about critical issues happening in the world, lending their voices to the movements those issues inspire and delivering moving, uplifting performances, whether on stage or on screen. Emma’s Revolution's songs have travelled around the world and have been sung for the Dalai Lama, praised by Pete Seeger, and covered by Holly Near. All proceeds from the concert go to support the Immigrant Justice Initiative, a program at the Community Church that supports those in our immigrant community who have been marginalized and subjected to unjust threats of deportation and hateful treatment. |
