We Love Mountains Tour

As we speak, millions of tons of explosives are being detonated in the Appalachian Mountains—destroying hundreds of beloved mountains and streams and threatening local residents’ health— all in the name of cheap electricity.

To spread the word, Appalachian Voices and Restoring Eden have partnered to bring an exciting line-up of concerts stretching the Southeast and mid-Atlantic to raise awareness about the devastating impacts of mountaintop removal on Appalachia. Dewi Sant will headline the tour, joined by many other amazing bands along the way.

Check out the line up below, stay plugged in for new show announcements, and come out for an amazing evening of music, friends, and activism.
