V/A "Noise For Now Vol. 2"

In the fall of 2022, several music managers teamed up with NOISE FOR NOW to release good music to ensure safe abortion access to all as a digital-only release available for 24 hours on Bandcamp. That compilation raised over $230K. NOISE FOR NOW has since started its own record label, with its first release being a vinyl-only release for RSD Black Friday 2023, with selections from that digital release. Artists for that included Cat Power, Sleater-Kinney, Tegan & Sara, My Morning Jacket, Maya Hawke, Fleet Foxes, Jason Isbell & Amanda Shires, and more (A limited number of Volume One are still available, see order info below).

Volume 2 is now here, with unreleased tracks/versions/covers from Faye Webster, Courtney Barnett, Julia Jacklin, The War on Drugs, MC50, Claud, Big Freedia, SOFIA ISELLA, Becca Mancari, A.J. Haynes (of Seratones), and with a track from the original compilation, David Byrne and Devo.

This is being released on June 21, 2024 around the anniversary of Dobbs (June 24), which was the SCOTUS decision that overturned Roe v. Wade.
