ANNOUNCING : BS Records & our first double/compilation album (!!) This has long been a dream for us, and we’re excited to share this news. For our first record, all proceeds go to @democracyforward a legal organization using the courts to defend progress, disrupt extremism, and fight tirelessly for our democracy. At The Bitter Southerner, it’s our job to lift up individuals and organizations tackling our country’s crisis head on. Our heroes at Democracy Forward are some of those people, so we’re very proud to give this record the same name: Democracy Forward. We owe an enormous thank you to these amazing artists : ( in order of appearance) Michael Stipe (Invocation), Sierra Ferrell, Wilco, Tyler Childers, Brandi Carlile, Hurray For The Riff Raff, Allison Russell, Brittany Howard, Tunde Adebimpe, Kevin Morby and Waxahatchee, Fruit Bats, Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, She Returns From War, John Prine, S.G.
