Last weekend, MarchFourth turned heads at the annual LEAF Festival in Asheville, NC, making a statement against the state’s new bathroom bill by performing a full set in drag. The set came in protest of the new HB2 law, which blatantly discriminates against LGBTQ citizens and their rights.
The band is filled with outrageous performers as well, packing the stage with over 20 performers – musicians, dancers, and more – for an incredible musical force. Having that entire crew dress in drag sent a poignant message to state legislators about equality and feeling comfortable with oneself. The show also featured a cover of Prince’s “Purple Rain,” packed into a full 80 minutes of music.
Thanks to the I AM AVL team, we can enjoy the musical spectacle that was MarchFourth’s set at LEAF last weekend. Enjoy it below!
