Why

SOLIDARITY SOUNDS - Party for Peace!
It's time for the peace-loving music and arts community to come together, dance in solidarity and share their message of peace, unity and hope for a better world!
Solidarity Sounds brings together music, performers, artists and peace-loving humans who share a desire for peace and a just world, built on diversity, generosity, freedom, human rights and a shared love of dance music.
In the words of Michael Franti, let's party and give POWER TO THE PEACEFUL!

We do not believe in violence of any kind and are saddened to see the ongoing violence of occupation, extremist attacks, and state-backed terror and war inflicted on innocent humans. We do not accept this as a way to peace and it is unacceptable to us.
Our music and arts community dances with people from all cultures, we share our music and art on foreign lands, and we ALWAYS DANCE in PEACE!!!
We stand strong with the spirits of our forebearers, from Nina Simone, Maya Angelou, Ruby Hunter, Archie Roach, Bob Marley, Michael Franti, Gil Scott Herron and so many many more before us. We will carry songs and messages of freedom to our children and teach them PEACE NOT WAR, SHARING not selfishness, UNIVERSAL HUMAN RIGHT and give POWER only to the PEACEFUL.
Brothers and sisters, it’s time for us to beat the drums of peace, sing our songs of freedom loud and clear, and dance in the dust of war, violence and oppression.
Let's do this!
