Low Cut Connie Cancel Kennedy Center Show Over Trump’s Takeover

Low Cut Connie, Philadelphia rock band, has canceled a show scheduled for the Kennedy Center after Trump took control of the org.

Low Cut Connie, the Philadelphia rock and soul band fronted by Adam Weiner, has canceled a scheduled March 19 concert at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., citing President Trump’s takeover of the formerly non-partisan arts venue. “I was very excited to perform as part of this wonderful institution’s Social Impact series, which emphasizes community, joy, justice and equity through the arts. Upon learning that this institution that has run non-partisan for 54 years is now chaired by President Trump himself and his regime, I decided I will not perform there,” Weiner wrote on Instagram.
