Amy Ray Band

Tear It Down Single

This very Ferron-like song about tearing down Confederate monuments is very good, and says a lot about the modern South. It was inspired by a rally where the Indigo Girls played a set, Project Say Something, an organization to get rid of or move Confederate monuments to more appropriate places.

Ray has had a good solo career when she's not with the Indigo Girls, and this is one more great song in a whole line of them. If you want to hear what she's like on her own, this single is great place to start.
