WELCOME

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY…

 Thanks for stopping by. I’ve been making music, “seriously,” since 1998, when I teamed up with Julius Margolin and began a decade of fun and frustration, singing for the cause of unions and in eight years of protest against a stolen election and illegal president. Julius never once would concede that George Bush was president…. I accepted it and fought. We produced three CDs of our music and four CDs in the “Hail to the Thief” compilation series that ended, thankfully, with “Farewell to the Thief!” in 2008.

Along the way, we made a film about Julius (“A Union Man”), got to know some wonderful people and musicians, and played for people on both coasts and in between. When Julius faced his final illness in the summer of 2009, he did so with the love and support from literally hundreds of people all over the world who knew of his dedication, determination, and love for the struggle. Julius died on August 24, 2009, one week after his 93rd birthday, leaving me as a solo act. But he is and will always be a part of my work and he has left an impressive body of work on his own. See georgeandjulius.com for more info about our work together.

In 2010, I released a solo CD, “Songs for Jules and Bruce,” and the veterans CD compilation “Until You Come Home.” You can find out more about this compilation of songs that speaks of the horrors of war and the struggle of our military families at untilyoucomehome.com. A second volume was released in 2016… and I keep putting out CDs about every two years.

My newest CDs are “A World Like This” (released in October 2021) and “The Coronavirus Sessions” (October 2020) and feature the same core of wonderful musicians and singers I have been working with over the last few albums.

Thanks so much to Noah Wager for the website work and updates!

Please feel free to e-mail me at george@georgemann.org with any questions, comments, thoughts, etc., and especially if you or your union, organization or group are interested in booking a concert, educational/labor/folk history workshop, or a showing of the film “A Union Man.”

As of December 2021, no extensive touring planned, the pandemic is still making planning impossible. Check the “News & Gigs” page for some upcoming gigs and any tour plans… Florida in February if possible!
