This Week with David Rovics

"They'll Starve the Children"

Meanwhile in Gaza, Israel is banning aid groups and starving all the children to death. Anyone going to kidnap Netanyahu and his wife?

"Save the Humans"

Is there hope for planet Earth? Well, there's always the prospect of being saved by Aliens from Outer Space. Title track of Ai Tsuno's January 15th album release!

"Disarm Israel"

Miko Peled was on Al-Jazeera the other day, making so much good sense, I had to write a song about it.

“Disarm Israel” will be one of several catchy tracks about the ongoing US-Israeli genocide of the Palestinian people that will be part of Ai Tsuno’s January 15th album release, Save the Humans.

Gorilla Radio Year-Ender 2025

Chris Cook did an absolutely wonderful wrap-up of 2025 for his Gorilla Radio podcast, consisting of snippets from interviews he did throughout the year, with a song of mine between each one!

Bisbee, Arizona, 1917 -- and this weekend!

Perhaps the most broadly notable thing about Bisbee is the town's outsized role in US & Mexican labor history. And the most timely piece of information about Bisbee? I'm playing there this weekend!

 

 

 

"When Luigi Goes on Trial"

One of the things that 2026 holds in store is what some are already calling "the trial of the century."

The Red and the Blue GUIDED TOUR

A guided tour of Ai Tsuno's 9th album, which consists of 12 songs David Rovics created with Ai Tsuno over the course of December, 2025. Topics covered include the ongoing Gaza genocide, the trial of Luigi Mangione, the corporate internet, and the beauty of Bonoboville. The Red and the Blue drops on the music streaming platforms of January 9th, 2026.

"Reality Awaits Outside"

If you're feeling hopeless, most likely the first thing you should do is leave all your devices in a hole somewhere and go outside.

This will be one of the tracks on my next album with Ai Tsuno, The Red and the Blue, which, if all goes as planned, will drop on all the music streaming platforms on January 9th.

"The Internet is an Ugly Place"

The modern internet, controlled as it is by the world's biggest corporations and their conflict-promotion algorithms, has become a nightmare of monolithic proportions.

This will be one of the tracks on my next album with Ai Tsuno, The Red and the Blue, which, if all goes as planned, will drop on all the music streaming platforms on January 9th.

The Red and the Blue [travelogue]

There's really no such thing as red or blue -- just lots of folks like me and you.
