Spent yesterday afternoon protesting ICE actions with members of West Seattle Indivisible. Each of us held a sign remembering someone who died in ICE custody, or was killed by ICE. A very somber protest that was backed strongly by our local community. ICE is out of control. youtu.be/f9PgNl3fZ7Q

My latest song, “Comin’ To Take You Home” was inspired by a sad news story. It explores three different types of loss: faith, people, and sensibility. Musical influences included Woodie Guthrie’s “Deportee; “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot;” and “Plastic Jesus.” The video is powerful. youtu.be/Gb68KIUXX_4
