Animal Rights Song – The Repressions

March 2023 was a grand time of performance and connection~ Here are some highlights:

The first OG Songwriter’s Showcase went so well, the Repressions are going to do it again!

Join The Repressions for the March 19th show at The Organic Grill, with talented artists Kiisrtin Marilyn and Rick Rocker!

Kiirstin Marilyn (she/her) is a singer-songwriter, actor and activist.
She has appeared on USA Network’s, Mr. Robot, Starz’ Hightown, and will soon be seen on season 2 of Peacock TV’s Dr. Death. Kiirstin is co-creator of the sketch comedy duo, Goddamn Vegan S.O.B.s, and her music can be found on all major streaming platforms. Follow her on Instagram and tiktok: @kiirstinmarilyn and @gdvegansobs

With an infusion of modern sonic sensibilities, New York City-bred recording artist, Rick Rocker manages to crack open the time capsule on all we know and love of rock and roll. “He writes songs that are near-instant anthems, made for shouting from rooftops, an arena or just your own bedrooms,” says Queens Tribune. Transparency & vulnerability are recurring pillars throughout Rocker’s previous releases including his acclaimed EP, “Love Turn” (2020.) You can find his music on all major streaming platforms and learn more at rickrockermusic.com. Follow him @rickrockermusic

The first OG Songwriter’s Showcase was such a hit, the Repressions are going to do it again!

Many thanks to The Organic Grill, wonderful artists Natalie Asport and Sara No H, and the lovely crowd that came out on Sunday. We’ll see you again on Sunday March 19th with a new lineup!

Happy New Year!

The next offical single release will be “Medicate Me” on February 25, 2023. There are many live shows coming up, including twice weekly on Twitch. Every Tuesday from 8pm-10pm, and alternating Fridays and Saturdays.

The Twitch community contuinues to grow, and The Repressions are playing a special set on Sunday 1/22 from 7-9pm as part of the Jedi Friends Raid Train, a 4 day Music Festival.

See Nate live at Maggie Halls in Astoria on Thursday February 16th, doing all the covers (with a likely guest appearance from Barbara.)

2022 was such an important year, and there were a few moments, shows and memories that have yet to make it to the site, so here they are together, a jumble of bright lights and the finest friends and a beautiful Followcat.

Ambient versions of Repressions songs, A Halloween themed Animal Rights Arts Event, a Radio feature, and a new single! Let’s Get Depressed arrives on November 22, and there will be many live performances before and after that. The schedule will be updated as we go.

Sometimes the message can come through when you are jumping and up-tempo. See our new live performance of “Just An Animal” on YouTube today. Thanks for watching!

This festival was sadly cancelled, but the show went on, with dozens of performers, speakers and cool cats contributing. The full parade can be found in three installments on Veggie Pride Parade NYC’s new Youtube channel. Here is the sing-along video from part 2 by The Repressions:

Just one day away! This weekend long festival is going to be full of food and classes and art and music and ethical vendors and all to help animals! These are the songs The Repressions are excited to play:

Filmed live at Repressions Castle, this video is simple but very meaningful. The Repressions are honored to be performing this song during their set at Hudson Valley Vegfest Kingston Animalia concert this Saturday October 19 at BSP Kingston.

Thank you for watching!

The Repressions believe that all living beings deserve to be free, that’s why they are vegan, for the animals. Playing the Veggie Pride Parade NYC was a truly meaningful performance, with an amazing group of performers and speakers and truly a lot of fun!
