Thank you so much to Plant Powered Disruptors and Urban Vegan Roots, our fellow performers Natalie Asport, Kiirstin Marilyn. Diana Rose, and 3Gan for such a beautiful evening! There is a new YouTube video today of the closing number and the amazing crowd singing along. There was a true sense of community and joy present, when we need it most. Lift Your Head Up!
New YouTube video today! The Repressions cover “Island Song,” also known as “Adventure Time: Come Along With Me,” live at Espresso 77 in Jackson Heights NYC.
Island Song was written by Ashley Eriksson of the band Lake. We love the song and the show!
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.
New YouTube video today! The Repressions love theme songs, and this one is a favorite! Filmed live at the October 14th Astoria Music Collective show at Shillelagh Tavern.
New YouTube video today! Starpool is a song about using your imagination to help you through hardships. We cannot knock over every obstacle in our path, but what if we could fly over or around it instead?
Filmed live at Alewife in Sunnyside, Queens, NYC, with Astoria Music Collective.
Thank you to Chaos Pixie for organizing the event, and playing that high energy music, along with cool and soulful artists Carissa Johnson and Step Neck! There were two extra crowds at the venue from earlier in the day that stayed for the show~ and The Repressions would like to think that their cover of the Pokemon theme song helped bring everyone together. It was a raucous night of inclusion, community and music!
