A song about the damage that mountaintop removal mining does to people and communities from George Mann's upcoming CD "Portraits." Inspired by comments Tom Paxton made at the Clearwater Folk Festival, and the environmental work of Pete Seeger, George wrote this on the drive home from Clearwater on June 23, 2014.

Trickle on Down the Mountain

The only "rocker" on the new "Portraits" CD! An homage to REM, and a song of a lonely Republican. Drums by Michael Wellen, Bass by Doug Robinson, the rest is George, I think we laid seven guitar tracks on this one, counting the begining and ending  parts.

The Wrong Side Of History

I wrote this song long ago when a cop murdered an off-duty security guard named Patrick Dorismond after approaching him in a drug-buy sting and having Dorismond tell him off... not much has changed. 

The Whitewash

One of Jon Fromer's last great songs, written in the year before Jon died of cancer in January 2013. The Burns sisters singing harmony, Doug Robinson on bass and Michael Wellen on drums. George Mann on guitars, keyboards and lead and harmony vocals. From the new CD "Portraits."

Together, We Are Union

A fighting song that takes on those who would dare to try to destroy our unions-- goodbye Scott Walker, your days in Wisconsin are numbered!

The Union Made Me Strong (C) 2012 George Mann

Miner's Lullaby

This is the last song that Julius recorded before his death in 
August, 2009. We were able to play him the final mix while he was in hospice care. In honor of 12/21/12, and the world surviving...
