Bright Eyes have released a new video, "Coyote Song." The song and video are part of frontman Conor Oberst's support for Sound Strike, a musician-led protest against Arizona's controversial immigration law. In an open letter to Artists Conor Oberst said:
American ideals of democracy and liberty are built on the foundation that all people, regardless of race or country of origin, deserve fair and equal treatment by the government . . . We've all seen the power music has to spread messages of solidarity and hope.
The song and video is being sold for $2.00 to raise money for The Florence Project, a nonprofit organization that provides free legal help to immigrants caught in the detention and deportation system in Arizona. Buy it here.
