If ska needed a revival, no one told We Are the Union. While there s been plenty of chatter about a new wave of ska, these L.A. punks have been going strong for most of the last 15 years, persisting through the genre s dark age. Now, that dedication looks poised to pay off in a big way with their fifth and best album.
Ordinary Life is a fun-sounding yet intensely sincere record that s filled with heart and purpose. Not long before the album s release, singer Reade Wolcott came out as a trans woman, and her struggles with gender dysphoria and self-discovery are a propulsive force behind this music. With a potent mix of mid- 90s ska-punk and early-2000s pop-punk, We Are the Union have delivered 11 sharply written and highly gratifying songs about being who you are.

“Joseph listens to instruction and takes direction well. He is a very hard worker and doesn’t mind going the extra mile. He comes into class every day prepared to work, is intuitive, and picks up skills quickly,” said Graber.
