Peasant & Darla Farmer Go Political With Rock The Vote!
 
A few months ago, both of Paper Garden’s newest acts headed South to play a couple key shows at SXSW in Austin. While they were down there, Peasant and Darla Farmer each had great opportunities to get in front of the camera and record live PSA’s for Rock The Vote. Paper Garden is happy to say that its artists strongly believe that the impact of the artistic community getting involved in politics is now more important than ever with the presidential elections draw nearer.

With that, you can now check out a brief preview into why these bands believe it’s important to vote. Check out Darla Farmer’s PSA at
and Peasant’s PSA at



Head down as though years of struggle and strife have placed him under the earth, [Peasant’s] ability to silence a crowd with a simple acoustic guitar is never in doubt and his shyness serves as a powerful asset in his own personal rebellion against the ruling class.” – Blogcritics.org

“A lot of people out there have a lot of complaints and want a lot of things to change, but a lot of people don’t do anything about it—this is your chance to do it, so we encourage you to go out there and rock the vote.” – Ben Klise, Darla Farmer
