Here is what people are saying about David rovics.

"Listen to David Rovics..."
Pete Seeger

"David Rovics is the musical version of Democracy Now!"
Amy Goodman, host, Democracy Now!

"[David Rovics] is a guy George W. Bush would probably like to clamp in chains at Guantanamo Bay -- the last American protest singer (or so it seems)... In these days of ongoing neo-conservatism he carries the torch of dissent and protest -- in fact if the great Phil Ochs were to come back from the dead tonight he'd probably be hailed as the new David Rovics."
Andy Kershaw, BBC Radio 3

"If Alternative Radio had a musical voice, it would be David Rovics. He will tell the people.
David Barsamian, host, Alternative Radio

"Rovics has his fist tight on the pulse of intervention through music."
Sing Out! Magazine

"In that Wobbly tradition of sharp social commentary, David is a master."
The Industrial Worker

"Inspiring, and inspired... For anyone despairing of finding the next generation, worry no more!"
AK Press
