ONLINE: Georgia Comes Alive
Bobby Rush
In many years runoff elections in Georgia would not inspire collective national hand-wringing, but as with much else in 2020 normal expectations can be jettisoned. Georgia Comes Alive is a livestream concert to promote voter participation in the Peach State s Jan. 5 runoff contest, but everyone else can just join in and enjoy a lot of fine music. It s your one time to see The Lame Ducks, an impromptu supergroup featuring Bob Weir (Grateful Dead), and a wide range of other performers should offer something for musical tastes from blues (such as Bobby Rush, pictured) to EDM and much in between.

On Saturday, December 26th at 3 PM ET, Live For Live Music, in partnership with HeadCount, presents Georgia Comes Alive, a one-day virtual music festival to promote voter participation in the upcoming Georgia runoff elections by supporting local grassroots organizations like Georgia Coalition for the People s Agenda and CivicGeorgia. Starting today, fans are encouraged to visit GeorgiaComesAlive.com and donate to the cause. Those who make a donation of any size in advance will receive an email with a link to the stream on the day of the show.
The virtual event, powered by Nugs.net and Plus1, is the latest from the team behind Democracy Comes Alive, Quarantine Comes Alive and Justice Comes Alive, which collectively raised close to $300,000 for various charitable causes and garnered nearly two million views. Like its predecessors, the event aims to direct this momentum toward the critical Georgia Senate runoff elections in January.
