PEACEKNICKS brings the historic tradition of protest songwriting into the 21st Century. As inspired by Woody Guthrie and Joan Baez as they are by Stevie Wonder and the Bee Gees, their rhythmically-rolling, harmony-laden tunes will keep you singing and dancing all night.. and chanting for a better tomorrow.
“Like if Pete Seeger and Tenacious D had a baby.”

“The way that they’re able to sing about such serious topics, real issues, while still keeping things lighthearted and goofy (teasing television themes like ‘King of the Hill’, ‘Doug’ and ‘Jeopardy’ during their songs) is truly unique.”
