El primero de los tres conciertos de .troop.music con su nueva banda The Truth Machine en estuvo marcado por cantar verdades en tono de bluegrass, por la impecable ejecución de clásicos del género de los multi instrumentistas, y por la frescura de una puesta en escena que cautivó a una audiencia muy especial. The Fruit se ha convertido en el espacio de arte favorito de mucha gente en todo el estado de Carolina del Norte, y estos shows son parte de una tercera residencia que el lugar le ha otorgado al artista. Anoche fue el primer jueves de tres seguidos en los que el virtuosismo, el canto social y las nuevas propuestas musicales se conjugan, además de la onda “Venezualachia” del próximo jueves con el famoso dúo .
Lo que grabó con el celular no está muy bueno al comienzo pero es importante que lo vean porque Joe se refirió al HB10 muy sentidamente. Definitivamente, plasma su compromiso con la causa de los indocumentados que tanto sirven a la sociedad y a la economía en nuestras montañas.
Está ley establece que un administrador de la cárcel puede retener a una persona hasta 48 horas después de ser detenido si la persona es liberable y si las autoridades de ICE no se han presentado para recoger al acusado, que puede ser deportado por una simple infracción de tránsito aunque sea un miembro respetado y un honrado trabajador con muchos años en nuestro país si es indocumentado. Acto seguido interpretó su tema “Mercy for Migrants”.

We still can’t open for everyone’s paid submissions - but please share the link above with filmmakers you know and trust.
