Faye Webster, the War on Drugs, David Byrne, and Devo Share Rarities for Abortion Access Fundraiser

Faye Webster, David Byrne and Devo, and the War on Drugs have contributed rare tracks to a new compilation that'll raise money for abortion providers.

Faye Webster, the War on Drugs, and David Byrne and Devo have contributed tracks to the second Noise for Now benefit compilation, which will raise money for independent abortion providers across the country via the Keep Our Clinics campaign. Courtney Barnett contributed a demo of her 2015 song, “Boxing Day Blues,” while her fellow Australian singer-songwriter Julia Jacklin covered “Dead From The Waist Down” by the Welsh rock band Catatonia. And Byrne and Devo included their collaboration “Empire,” a song that’s been unofficially floating around in various forms for years and which actually appeared on a predecessor to the first Noise for Now, the 2022 digital-only release, Good Music To Ensure Safe Abortion Access To All, that was available for only 24 hours.
