If peace, justice and equality are part of your core values … and, if you enjoy well-written songs, guitars and voices singing in harmony … and, if you’d like to hear some live music and love every minute of it … Emma’s Revolution is a group you’ll want to hear.
.
Pat Humphries and Sandy O. are Emma’s Revolution. They work tirelessly for peace, justice and equality. They write and sing songs about how we can change our world. I think I could hear one of their shows every week and not grow tired of it. They’re that good.
.
They have a website with the same name as the duo, Emma’s Revolution. Soon, they’ll be listed on eFolkMusic, and you’ll be able to go there to purchase their music and keep up with their performance schedule. They also have a myspace page with a lot of interesting information about the band.
.
If you don’t do anything else today, check out their websites and get on their mailing list. Be sure to see their show the next time they are in your town. You’ll be glad you did.
.
Yes, I do like Emma’s Revolution!

I’m still sorting, giving away, throwing away. It seems endless.
Since last night, I’ve played the new cd (Roots, Rock and Revolution) about 5 times. A couple of hours ago, I pressed ‘repeat’ for ‘Where Are You Now?’ and it has played over and over for probably 2 or 3 hours while I’ve gone through boxes of papers. Beautiful and mournful, with love for those lost.
I read the words last night, but by tonight I had forgotten the story in the song. So, I’ve been imagining a parent with a small child walking on a beach, then someone at some kind of protest or in a country where people are ‘disappeared’. The fiddle, and the feeling in the way they sing it, makes it perfect. Beautiful and sad.
I will probably do the ‘repeat’ thing for a lot of the songs on this cd, different ones on different days, as the mood strikes.
