PARKER WOODLAND PRIDE SHIRT, CASSETTE RELEASE SHOWS, PILGRIMAGE TO DILLY, TX, & A MEMORIAL
Dear Parker Woodland friends and family,
Erin here. I am sorry to share that I will not be singing in the Nanci Griffith tribute show tomorrow night (6/27/26) at Cactus Cafe in Austin, as tomorrow will be my stepfather's memorial service. If you bought show tickets, I hope you go and have an amazing time. I expect to sing my song next year, as the show is an annual tradition. Being with family is so important, especially in difficult times.
Thank you for your love and support along the way. I do have some good things to share too...
FREE FAMILIES PILGRIMAGE: I have been on a pilgrimage to end family and child detention this week. Look for us on Rachel Maddow's show on Monday, as well as Texas Public Radio, KSAT, Univision and more. I'll share updates next week. Tomorrow is the big rally in Dilley if you can be there. People have come from Alaska, Puerto Rico, NY, CA, WA, DC, around TX, and more! You can still donate/sponsor here.
We are singing songs co-written and inspired by ICE-incarcerated children and families as we walk. Truly none of us are free until all of us are free, and Parker Woodland is proud to be part of the singing resistance to fascism!
What's next for Parker Woodland:
- our first cassette tape collection of singles dropping 7/24/26!
- a special edition Pride shirt-- rainbow version of our beloved disco astronaut!
