Reproductive justice nonprofit Noise for Now has announced the second edition of its namesake benefit compilation. NOISE FOR NOW VOL. 2 is due out on June 21 (in honor of the second anniversary of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade), and proceeds will benefit independent abortion providers throughout the country via Keep Our Clinics. It’s available for pre-order now.
The tracklist for Vol. 2 includes exclusive tracks from Faye Webster, The War on Drugs, Courtney Barnett, David Byrne and Devo, MC50 ft. Arrow De Wilde, Big Freedia, SOFIA ISELLA, Julia Jacklin, Becca Mancari, Claud, and Seratones’ AJ Haynes. See it in full below.
Noise for Now Executive Director Amelia Bauer says, “We are so grateful to work with these incredible artists to raise money and awareness for independent abortion clinics throughout the U.S. We know that when the artists and performers we love speak openly and unapologetically about abortion, abortion is stripped of its stigma. We believe that we can shape our future with art, community, and collective action.”
The announcement of Vol. 2 comes as the Supreme Court begins hearing arguments on whether to restrict access to mifepristone, a widely used abortion drug that’s been approved by the FDA.
