emma's revolution

Join us for the second performance in our Orange Coast Concerts 2010-2011 series. If you enjoy eclectic live music in an intimate setting, you will love Orange Coast Concerts.

On Saturday, April 2nd, 2011 get energized with a musical uprising of hope and change - with a dash of healthy irreverence. Pat Humphries and Sandy O are emma's revolution. They are life partners and activists for social justice, LGBT and women's rights, environmental justice, and political honesty. Their name comes from Emma Goldman's famous attribution, "If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution."

emma's revolution is the duo of award-winning, activist musicians, Pat Humphries & Sandy O, who write songs that become traditions. Their song, "If I Give Your Name" won Grand Prize in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest and their music has been featured on NPR's "All Things Considered" and Pacifica's "Democracy Now!". "Peace, Salaam, Shalom" is sung around the world and has been called the "anthem of the anti-war movement." "Keep On Moving Forward" opened the NGO Forum at the UN Fourth World Conference on Women in Bejiing, becoming the unofficial theme of the Conference.

emma's revolution is a motivating force intimate concerts and mass demonstrations and recently in performances and recordings with Holly Near. Infused with inspiration from the legacy of music for social change, Pat Humphries and Sandy O's dynamic harmonies are multiplied by hundreds of thousands. Emma Goldman stood for everybody's right to beautiful, radiant things. Join the revolution!
