The Labor Heritage/Rockin' Solidarity Chorus is based in the San Francisco Bay Area and is made up of workers from many unions, as well as students and independent folks who love to sing. We are dedicated to building more democracy and representation within our unions and we come together to celebrate our love of music and workers' culture.

The Chorus is directed by musician and labor organizer, Pat Wynne. Under her leadership, we borrow from many musical traditions such as South African and Gospel; traditional and newly composed labor songs; songs in Yiddish, Latin, Spanish and Xshosha; and parodies of popular songs created in the Joe Hill tradition. Pat Wynne's musical mission is to create a new canon of labor music that better reflects the diversity of our working population. Our accompanist and Pat Wynne's musical collaborator is Bernard Gilbert.

"If you really want to roll the union along, come and join the union in song!"

-- Walter Johnson, Former Secretary/Treasurer,
San Francisco Labor Council
