New Yorkers against Fracking Rally and Concert!




From New Yorkers against Fracking!
New Yorkers Against Fracking is very excited to announce a powerful and critically important rally and multi-media concert event to support a ban on fracking in New York State. On Tuesday, May 15th, join Medeski Martin & Wood, Natalie Merchant, Joan Osborne, the Felice Brothers, Ida, the Horse Flies, Tracy Bonham, Toshi Reagon, Dan Zanes, The Ahkwesasne Women Singers, and actors Melissa Leo and Mark Ruffalo in calling on our elected leaders to ban fracking in New York.

These all-stars are coming together for a special rally, concert, and multi-media performance at this very critical time.
