George Mann has been a union organizer, toured and played for all good causes for many years and produced the "Hail to the Thief!" anti-Bush CD compilation series. He also recorded and sang for 12 years with Julius Margolin, a longtime labor activist who died last August at 93.
George sings the classic songs from the last century of social activism and his own songs are powerful and funny observations on the state of the nation. Yet he also writes songs of hope, healing, struggle and triumph...
He is coming to Washington, DC to celebrate the new CD "Until You Come Home," a collection of songs for veterans that features folks like Tom Paxton, Holly Near, Utah Phillips, John Gorka, David Rovics and many more. Join with Iraq Veterans Against the War for this special event!
