About this event

Leon Rosselson has been turning silence into song for six decades, creating a sound track for unsung heroes and unspeakable scoundrels. The People&#39;s Music Network is celebrating Leon&#39;s lifetime of work with a live online concert featuring an international lineup of musical luminaries -- including Leon himself -- singing his songs and reflecting on how his music has made a difference in struggles for justice and peace.<br /><br />Each artist will perform a song written by Leon Rosselson. Artists include Frankie Armstrong, Billy Bragg, Martin Carthy, Barbara Dane, Charlie King, and many others. For a full list, go to https://www.peoplesmusic.org/event-4789267.<br /><br />The concert is totally free to the public through the YouTube livestream. By registering for the concert, people can help support PMN’s year round work of presenting workshops, conferences, and songswaps, while also getting the Zoom link for the show.<br /><br />Members of the People&#39;s Music Network may register for free.
