By Jonathan Bristow "I know we've come a long way, We're changing day to day, but tell me Where do the children play?" - Yusuf Cat Stevens
We join the millions across the world crying out: No more. ✊
The millions crying out: #Ceasefire The millions crying out: #FreePalestine 🇵🇸 Until there is no more death, no more destruction, no more genocide and no more occupation, we'll keep spinning tunes from our No More playlist in regular rotation. Music is critical in the fight. By Jonathan Bristow Vince Meneses - the veteran Filipino singer-songwriter from Portland, OR, who performs under the moniker Zax Vandal - is finding new life, vitality and inspiration with age. On a journey that began with his fathers love of Englebert Humperdink, a coming of age in the underground crusty punk rock scene, and a transformative season with Billy Joel’s “The Stranger” coming into fatherhood, the eclectic musician is now stepping back into his music as a solo performer, after the pandemic and the heartbreaking dissolution of his band.
