Benyaro brings Get Out the South Paciic County Humane Society
Vote tour to the North Coast to host Open House and BIG Rale
ASTORIA and LONG BEACH, Wash.
— Wyoming indie roots and
rock band Benyaro is bring-
ing its Get Out The Vote fall
tour to Clatsop and Paciic
counties.
Partnering with Head-
Count and Rock the Vote,
Benyaro has been perform-
ing across the U.S. since
Aug. 14 to encourage voter
registration and voting in
November’s elections.
The band will perform
at 8 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 30
at Fort George Brewery,
located at 1483 Duane St. in
Astoria The show is free and
open to all ages. The concert
is an oficial Rock The Vote
rally, where the band will
motivate people to vote or
vote early.
Benyaro will also travel
to Washington and per-
form with Jeff Crosby at
the Pitchwood Alehouse in
Raymond on Nov. 4 and
at the Adrift Hotel in Long
Beach on Election Day, Nov.
8. The band will talk at both
shows about why voting is
important.
“After the show, we are
open to more one-on-one
discussions with anyone who
approaches and wants to
engage in that discussion. At
the merch table, wherever,”

said frontman Ben Musser.
Of the civically minded
tour, Musser said, “Voting
is very important, no matter
the choices. It may sound
hyperbolic, but people die
every day ighting to have
that right. Many Americans
take it for granted. I hope to
encourage folks across the
USA to shed cynicism, use
your best judgment, and vote
practically on Nov. 8.”
This election season is
particularly one of interest
for Musser who attended
The Hill School alongside
Donald Trump Jr. Despite
those school boy ties, Muss-
er is actively campaigning
against his former class-
mate’s father.
In conjunction with the
tour, Benyaro released the
irst new material from the
band’s sessions with Danny
Kadar (The Avett Brothers,
My Morning Jacket), record-
ed at Echo Mountain Studios
in Asheville, North Caroli-
na. The politically inspired
song “Too Many Men” was
released as a single to radio
