.WOODY GUTHRIE’S “machine” killed fascists– or so America’s terrific dust-bowl balladeer composed on his guitar. Port White’s electric machine “files a claim against fascists”, wrote the frontman of The White Lines on Instagram on September 9th. The “fascist” is actually Donald Trump, that recently used the band’s most pop music, “Seven Nation Soldiers”, in an initiative online video.
Mr White wants him to stop. He joins a lengthy list of performers who challenge Mr Trump using their popular music: Abba, Celine Dion, Beyoncu00e9, Foo Fighters, the properties of Isaac Hayes and Sinu00e9ad O’Connor as well as Johnny Marr of The Smiths– and also those are actually merely the objectors from this year. (Our experts have actually crafted a playlist of Trump-appropriated tracks.) Can they switch the music off?
