Two legends of the folk-rock music scene will join forces this fall, as Donna the Buffalo will team with Peter Rowan for a hearty fall tour. As Rowan said in a statement, “At last, it comes around again; making music with Donna the Buffalo, one of my favorites.”

Dubbed “The Stampede”, the tour’s mission is to raise awareness to the inappropriate use of corporate finances in politics. The bands will be joined by Ben Cohen, co-founder of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream. In the statement, Cohen said, “Since 2000, special interest groups have poured over $11 billion into federal elections. The absurd level of money in politics from corporations and billionaires is raping and corrupting our democracy. The Stampede is a demonstration of public outrage and its working.”
The groups will be selling “Stamp Money Out Of Politics” stamps at each show, with a suggested donation of 5 dollars. The tour kicks off on November 11th at the Ardmore Music Hall in Ardmore, PA, and runs through December 4th in Chicago, IL. The full schedule can be seen below:
