Presenter: George Mann

Event Duration: 120 minutes

A former union organizer and activist based in New York, USA, George Mann sings songs from the last century of labour and social activism, and his own songs are powerful and funny takes on the state of the nation. His concerts are part sing-along, part history lesson, and he can make you shout for joy, send chills down your spine or bring tears to your eyes in the same set.

This year, George produced and performed in both the Eastern and Western coast legs of the IWW’s Joe Hill 100 Roadshow, more than 20 concerts celebrating the music and life of the “man who never died,” 100 years after his execution in the state of Utah.

Join us for the only Melbourne performance of these songs and stories of Joe Hill, as well as plenty of other folk and labour songs. 

Appropriate for all ages, all welcome!

DOORS OPEN @ 1.45PM
