On Tuesday May 15th, join Natalie Merchant, Medeski, Martin and Wood, Joan Osborne, the Felice Brothers, Ida, Dan Zane, actress Melissa Leo and actor Mark Ruffalo in calling on our elected leaders to ban fracking in New York. These all-stars are coming together for a special rally, concert, and multi-media performance at this very critical time.  New York needs to address this dangerous practice and enact a ban to protect the citizens of this great state.  Please join us and Academy Award winning filmmaker Alex Gibney, who will be filming the event, for an experience that promises to be transformative.
