Songs of Protest are inevitably about social justice, conflict, inequality, politics and power. They cover a range of genres from hip hop to hymns. To my mind they must sing to the heart and soul but not preach. That’s not an easy brief. Songs of Protest never go out of fashion however it seems to me that the Sixties in particular was a period where they were at the forefront of popular music. These songs attempt to channel that zeitgeist whilst exploring universal and contemporary themes.  These songs have been crafted with a chorus of voices in mind.
