Nate Solo Shows in NYC and on Twitch!

Hello friends! While Barbara is recovering from sugery for the next few months, Nate will be performing solo shows. You can catch him with Plant Powered Disruptors at Urban Vegan Roots on Friday November 8th. You can also join, watch, and make requests from home twice a week on Twitch. Twitch is free to watch from anywhere in the world with an internet connection, and a lot of fun. You can lurk and listen while you do your chores, or join the friendly people in chat, and choose from hundreds of requests for Nate, every Tuesday evening and Saturday afternoon.

Barbara says hello, and she is looking forward to performing again when she is fully recovered. There will be plenty of Repressions’ content releasing on YouTube, Spotify, Tiktok, and more before the big comeback show. Until then, she is so grateful to her wonderful friends and family, and Nate, for their support.

Hope to see you next Friday, or on Twitch!

We’ll Find Ourselves Back Here – New and completely improvised song

New YouTube video today! The Repressions started noodling on piano and guitar, and kept going, and Nate improvised some lyrics, and now it’s a song. This is often how it begins.

This video is the creation of this song, live on the Twitch show, and we’re calling it “We’ll Find Ouselves Back Here.” We are sharing this to inspire ourselves to keep working on it. Look for a more polished version in the future.

You can see more musical improv and make song requests twice a week on Twitch, it’s free to watch from anywhere! Thank you for watching!

Take Me Home,Country Roads Video

There are certain songs that everyone MUST sing slong to. New YouTube video today! The Repressions cover “Take Me Home, Country Roads ” by John Denver, live from The Local Hostels NY in NYC as part of the Metro Retro Folk rock Review.

Thanks for watching! You can see The Repressions live in NYC or on tour, or twice a week live streaming shows on Twitch!

I’m Just Pieces~ New Video

The Warrior Women Concert highlighting Female Artists in New York City was just the right event to play “I’m Just Pieces,” a song about what it’s like to walk around in a woman’s body. You can see it on YouTube video today!

The Repressions perform their original song, “I’m Just Pieces,” live at The Warrior Women NYC concert at American Federation of Musicians New York, on June 28, 2024. So many thanks to Jasmine Sandler of Warrior Women In Business for putting this amazing show together. Thank you to Citizen Hullabaloo for the video!
