The Buzzy TV, Erotic Thrillers, and Obscure TikToks That Got Us Through the Week appeared on jezebel.com by Jezebel Staff.
This week, folk icons Emmylou Harris and Joan Baez joined the Tennessee gun control protests and, in the grand Americana tradition of protest music, their contribution was quite literally their voices.
Outside the Tennessee state Capitol, Harris, Margo Price, and others celebrated Rep. Justin Jones’ reinstatement to the state legislature after his expulsion for protesting with music. They sang—what else—a cover of Bob Dylan’s “I Shall Be Released,” and though this recording is messy, it’s all the more significant for it.
As NPR described it, “voices colliding and coalescing, choked with emotion, reinvigorating a song that has sometimes felt overused and making it feel as bracing as the wind.” Choked with emotion myself, I can’t put it better than that.
In a similarly unfiltered moment, Jones and Baez sang a simple harmony together of “We Shall Overcome” after running into each other in the airport.
These are just two moments in a momentous couple of weeks in Nashville. This, while most of the mainstream country stars who call that city home only sing to protest, I don’t know, girls wearing not-tight jeans? A mythical incursion on small town values? Please. —Sarah Rense
