As heard on Thom Hartmann''s nationally syndicated radio show . . .
An exclusive digital single in advance of actually having enough money to make a new full-length CD, Matthew Grimm & the Red Smear''s first new work since their much-lauded debut record Dawn''s Early Apocalypse is an anthem for the great mass of working Americans forsaken by political parties. "One Big Union," invoking the venerable rallying cry of the storied Industrial Workers of the World union, looks critically across a worldwide landscape of corporate predominance and austerity and the wars and oppression that inexorably follow. And it renders a resonant sonic dream of how the things might be different if people exercised the collective power that is their right, even if too long begrudged, if not denied, them.
Produced in cooperation with https://www.tradebit.com and the Blue America progressive fundraising caucus, Matthew Grimm''s "One Big Union" has been picked up by at least two 2008 Congressional campaigns as a rallying cry for the real, insurgent progressive movement to reclaim leadership of both the Democratic Party and the nation — after too many years of being hijacked by the privileged few.
