As musicians continue to use their voices for change, Todd Farrell of Benchmarks (Nashville, TN), has curated a 22-song collection of artists covering songs originally by Georgia musicians. Featuring recordings by Austin Lucas, Nato Coles & the Blue Diamond Band, Benchmarks, Orphan Riot, The Right Here, and more, the album is titled Democratic For the People with proceeds going to Fair Fight organization.
“This project was born out of a love for the art and culture of my old home state of Georgia, and a need to contribute to the fight happening down there. With the current Senate runoff race happening, the fight down there affects everyone,” Farrells says of putting the compilation together, which released a week ago on Dec. 4.
