That Guy (Miguel’s Song) – Astoria Music Collective Fundraiser for Miguel Hernandez

New song and YouTube video today!

Miguel Hernandez is the founder and solo art machine behind Astoria Music Collective. Miguel has fallen ill and the community is coming together to help him and his family come through. Like the song says, Miguel loves everybody, genuinely, and is just the coolest, sweetest person, aside from all of the support and hard work he does on behalf of artists. We all love Miguel, and we all have a story about something wonderful he did for us. Give at this link if you can, GO FUNDE ME for Miguel or attend one of the live fundraising shows all month. There are cool raffles and great performances awaiting you.

The Repressions will be dedicating their Tuesday March 12 Twitch show to Miguel. Follow Astoria Music Collective for the details on amazing music, community, and support. We all love that guy.

Folk Punk Show! 1/16

Folk-punk is a term that we hear often to describe the band, and we say that makes as much sense as all of the the genres we jump to. We’ll be playing with cool cats Sam Rasiotis and JW Farrell next week, who both bring the noise and passion, and so The Repressions will be dedicating this set to the faster, rambunctious songs. Jump with us!
