VIDEO PREMIERE: FowlMouth, "Too Tired to Riot"

UNINTIMIDATED: Wisconsin Musicians Against Scott Walker is pleased to premiere the first video and song from the UNINTIMIDATED project: "Too Tired to Riot" by Kenosha, WI's FowlMouth!


FowlMouth are a group of long-tenured Kenosha scene veterans playing a bare-bones, stripped-down dirty, bluesy punk rock. "Too Tired to Riot" is a perfect choice for our first video posting as the song encapsulates the overall frustration with Scott Walker and the Wisconsin Republican party that inspired this project. As we have sat back over the past five years watching unions stripped of their power, education devalued, Wisconsin's resources and public lands attacked, and our state's middle class decimated, we've felt the need to rise up and do something more than vote, but the grind of daily lives often leaves us too worn out to do little more than share an angry Facebook post and call it a day. FowlMouth captures this feeling of powerlessness and exhaustion in an ironically upbeat, instantly catchy tune.

More videos are coming soon as we near the completion of this project! Watch out for more updates and information about release shows and more fun stuff coming this Spring!
