Okemah Rising: Vinyl LP
Okemah Rising is the final installment of the Woody Guthrie/Dropkick Murphys collaboration, so we wanted to bring it home with a bang. Whereas the goal of This Machine Still Kills Fascists was to raise consciousness, Okemah Rising intends to raise the roof. Sure, it has one or two tender moments, but all in all itâs much more of a party than TMSKF. Even a party record can have a message though â weâve felt that on the road over the last few months as weâve played Okemah Rising songs âGotta Get to Peekskillâ and âI Know How It Feelsâ on tour all over the world. Every night, when the audience is singing along with Woody's words, his steadfast defense of the working class, and his fight against social injustice and the abuse of political power comes across loud and clear. So as long as Dropkick Murphys are involved, Woodyâs message will always be heard.
