Music can do some powerful things, and music has always been used as a tool of revolt. With that in mind, 27 Midwestern acts (16 from Milwaukee) have come together for the follow up to 2016’s “Unintimidated: Wisconsin Musicians Against Scott Walker”, to release “Unpresidented: DIY vs. Donald Trump”.
