Music diversity in the age of Hanson

MELBOURNE — Well known band Even will headline a Rock Against Racism to be held here on Sunday, September 13. "It would be more accurate to call it a jazz, soul and rock against racism", event organiser Jo Williams told Green Left Weekly.

The Hoodangas, Brolga Boys, Mach Pelican, Funk'n'Wagnalls, as well as high school bands Wilbur and Mantus, join Even. Williams pointed out that such diverse bands, all with their own strong following, will come together for a united statement against racism.

The day is organised by the socialist youth organisation Resistance as part of its anti-racism campaign. The event will be held between 2pm and 8pm at Trades Hall. For more information, phone Jo on 9329 1320.
