Please support MAPC by attending this concert! Holly Near – an outspoken activist, singer, teacher and recording artist will grace the stage of the Orpheum Theatre in Madison. As a prominent talent in American Folk Music for more than 35 years, Holly Near has maintained her commitment to progressive political change and peace at a time when war and reaction dominate the political agenda. Her songs and her message give voice and hope to the deepest yearnings, of a nation at war, for an end to the bloodshed as she extends a challenge to all of us to show up and be counted. *Show Up* is also the title of her latest album. Like Pete Seeger, Joan Baez and Phil Ochs, Holly carries on the tradition of making music that is relevant to our lives and times and appeals in lyric tones to the better side of our nature. Holly’s stop in Madison is a part of a nationwide tour to take her message to the people. Opening for Holly will be Tracy Jane Comer, a talented national touring artist who is based in Madison and has developed a loyal following among Folk Music enthusiasts here. Proceeds will benefit the Madison Area Peace Coalition, WYOU Community Television, and The Center for Economic and Social Research. Tickets are $25 at the door and $22 in advance and will be available for sale from the local sponsoring organizations along with: Rainbow Bookstore Room of One's Own Bookstore Borders Bookstores (East and West) Orange Tree Imports Spruce Tree Music and Repair B-Side Records and Steep & Brew on Odana Road
