Last week we got very engrossed in our conversation with David Rovics, so much so that we ended up doing 2 shows of interviewing in one long session, so we have David back this week to provide 5 more songs and the remainder of the conversation. To recap from last week, David Rovics has produced something like 50 albums, and while his style is mostly folk-based, he does some songs which are folk-punk, metal and rock, but there were also a couple years where he was mainly making children's music. First & foremost, he's a powerful voice for protest, activism, social change, and he aims as best he can to make this a better world. We interviewed him back 18 years ago, so this is part two of his second full Song of the Soul & he joins us from Portland, Oregon.
Past/present religious/spiritual influences: Atheist, Humanist, Quaker, Taoism, Jewish
