Abortion Access Pagan Music Project
Your support will make The Red Album: Pagan Voices for Reproductive Rights a reality.
We are 19 bands who are using our music to raise money and awareness for abortion access in the United States. We are passionate about reproductive rights for everyone.
Last summer, several of the bands who are contributors to The Red Album were performing at a gathering of pagans, where we were in the musical lineup. We heard about the overturning of Roe v. Wade. We were outraged. We decided to turn our outrage into music.
We are pagans; our spiritual path encompasses one or more of the earth based and/or multi-theistic practices. We are musicians; we express our insights and desires through music. We sent out the call to other pagan musicians and gathered a fierce and talented crew. We began writing songs. Some tell the stories of women's lives. Others are a call to action to regain abortion rights. Yet others glorify the power of the Goddess and ask her to help us in this struggle.
The bands who are contributing a song to the project are:
S. J. Tucker * Spiral Rhythm * Celia Farran * Alexian * Spellsinger * Ginger Ackley
Alexander James Adams * Crow Women * Mr. E * Richard Anthony Williamson
Brian Henke * Primal Rhythm * Meren King * Louis Garou * Kira Lang
Mama Gina * Sydney Michael * Krista Chapman Green * Pan Fried
Your donation will be used to pay the costs of creating the music project. We have the songs. We have the will. We just need the funds for the engineering and physical production of the music album.
Your donation will go into our bank account, which is hosted by Ardantane Pagan Learning Center, which has graciously allowed us under their nonprofit umbrella. We'll turn your money into music. The album will be released on June 24, 2023, one year after the SCOTUS decision. All of the money from sales of the music will go to our beneficiaries. We have two.
- Elevated Access is a grassroots organization of small plane pilots who provide airplane rides to women who must travel to access abortion
- The National Abortion Federation supports abortion clinics, runs a national hotline, and collects data about violence against abortion providers, among many, many initiatives.
If we raise enough money to fully fund the production costs, any excess will be donated to these two organizations on album release day in June.
Thank you for helping us to make our musical dreams a reality!
